def print_task(): task = db.task(request.args(0,cast=int)) from gluon.contrib.markmin.markmin2pdf import latex2pdf template = open('//home/user/web2py/applications/Tagesaufgaben/tex/tex/templatee.tex','r').read() # check path latex = template.format(status=task.status) # args of the dbase pdf, warning, errors = latex2pdf(latex) if errors: pass # log errors response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/pdf' return pdf And this code in the template.tex \documentclass{{article}} \begin{{document}} {status} \end{{document}} thanks for help Massimo >>>> -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
