I don't think this has been implemented in Python because it's a pretty boring thing to do, and things like JasperReports (in Java) and Crystal Reports already have the market pretty well tied up. What my company did was to use JasperReports via a web service we set up. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Mako is an excellent template system, but you'll have a lot of work to do making it into a reporting system. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Sure, but again, these aren't reporting engines; they're just template engines. And I don't think any of the web template engines have PDF output. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Other folks have suggested Mako, and that's an excellent option. But I'd like to also suggest Brevé: a html DSL. http://breve.twisty-industries.com/ html [ head [ title [ 'A Brevé Template' ] ], body [ h1 [ 'Briefly, Brevé' ], br, div ( style = 'text-align: center;' ) [ span [ ''' As you can see, Brevé maps very directly to the final HTML output.
