How can I place an image over an existing PDF file at an specific coordinate location. The pdf represents a drawing sheet with one page. The image will be scaled. I\'m check
Thx to the previous answers. My way with python3.4
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from io import BytesIO
from PyPDF2 import PdfFileWriter, PdfFileReader
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
from reportlab.lib.pagesizes import A4
def gen_pdf():
# there are 66 slides (1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg...)
path = 'slades/{0}.jpg'
pdf = PdfFileWriter()
for num in range(1, 67): # for each slide
# Using ReportLab Canvas to insert image into PDF
imgTemp = BytesIO()
imgDoc = canvas.Canvas(imgTemp, pagesize=A4)
# Draw image on Canvas and save PDF in buffer
imgDoc.drawImage(path.format(num), -25, -45)
# x, y - start position
# in my case -25, -45 needed
imgDoc.save()
# Use PyPDF to merge the image-PDF into the template
pdf.addPage(PdfFileReader(BytesIO(imgTemp.getvalue())).getPage(0))
pdf.write(open("output.pdf","wb"))
if __name__ == '__main__':
gen_pdf()
