reportlab: setting colspan for td in rml

谁都会走 提交于 2019-12-04 01:27:01
问题 I can't find any option, that would allow to set colspan for td element in rml . Is that somehow possible? 回答1: The normal ReportLab way to do this would be to instead use Platypus and the Table flowable. When you set the style of the Table , you can specify a 'SPAN' command that will bundle any rectangular area of cells into one. You'll find more information on this in the ReportLab User Guide, chapter 7, page 81. If you must use RML, I'm inclined to think that colspan is simply not

ReportLab Image Link

问题 Is there a way to add an href/link to a Platypus Image object in ReportLab? I know how to add a link on text in a Paragraph but I can't seem to find anything about adding a link for an Image. 回答1: This can be easily achieved with the HyperlinkedImage class proposed by missmely: from reportlab.platypus import Image class HyperlinkedImage(Image, object): # The only variable I added to __init__() is hyperlink. I default it to None for the if statement I use later. def __init__(self, filename,

Convert plain text to PDF in Python

谁说我不能喝 提交于 2019-12-03 20:21:48
问题 For my project, I get a plain text file (report.txt) from another program. It is all formatted in plain text. If you open it in Notepad, it looks nice (as much as a plain text file can). When I open the file in Word and show the paragraphs, I see the ... for spaces and the backwards P for pararaph. I need to convert this file to PDF and add some other PDF pages to make one final PDF. All this happens in Python. I am having trouble converting the report.txt to pdf. I have ReportLab, and am

问题 Can we create interactive PDF forms using reportlab? That is, a form that takes in data from readers and save them into the database. 回答1: reportlab.pdfbase.pdfform.py implies that you can, but it doesn't sound like a mature feature. Support for Acrobat Forms in ReportLab documents This module is somewhat experimental at this time. Includes basic support for textfields, select fields (drop down lists), and check buttons. The public interface consists of functions at the moment. At some later

how to group objects in reportlab, so that they stay together across new pages

两盒软妹~` 提交于 2019-12-03 12:13:49
I'm generating some pdf files using reportlab. I have a certain section that is repeated. It contains of a header and a table: Story.append(Paragraph(header_string, styleH)) Story.append(table) How can I group the paragraph with the table (in latex I would put them into the same environment) so that in case of a page brake, the paragraph and table stay together? Currently the paragraph sometimes floats at the end of one page and the table starts on top of the next page. You can try to put them together in a KeepTogether flowable, like so: Story.append(KeepTogether([Paragraph(header_string,

How to change text/font color in reportlab.pdfgen

耗尽温柔 提交于 2019-12-03 00:16:42
I want to use a different color of text in my auto-generated PDF. According to the reportlab docs all I need to do is: self.canvas.setFillColorRGB(255,0,0) self.canvas.drawCentredString(...) But that doesn't do anything. The text is black no matter what. If you copy and paste the code in User Guide Section 2. You'll get a fancy coloured rectangle with a coloured Text within it. Probably the approach is not that clear in the user guide, I'd spent some time playing with it and I finally know how it works. You need to imagine yourself drawing a canvas. You need to do all the setup before you draw

Generate PDF of Protected Django Webpage with Attachments

别来无恙 提交于 2019-12-02 11:34:39
问题 So I'm trying to generate a PDF of a view that I have in a django web application. This view is protected, meaning the user has to be logged in and have specific permission to view the page. I also have some attachments (stored in the database as FileFields ) that I would like to append to the end of the PDF. I've read most of the posts I could find on how to generate PDFs from a webpage using pdfkit or reportlab , but all of them fail for me for some reason or another. Currently, the closest

问题 I'm using reportlab to generate reports. I can define the creation process in four steps: 1) get the data via API, 2) filter the data, 3) generate the graphics with matplotlib and 4) insert information in PDF with reportlab . I found in this (thanks Patrick Maupin!) and in this (thanks Larry Meyn!) answer a flowable matplotlib for ReportLab . I made some changes and I copy below the part of the code that interests: import os from matplotlib import pyplot as plt from matplotlib.backends
