hi,
i'm working with reportlab since a couple of weeks and i managed to
create quite nice pdfs...
there is a little problem though. since i have to create english and
russian content, i use the utf8 support of registered ttf's. the only
thing is that it does not support the justify-alignment in paragraph
flowables!
is there a way to fix that?
thanks alot

Hi, you'll get better response from the reportlab-users list at http://two.pairlist.net/mailman/list...eportlab-users
The ttf support has been significantly improved in an svn branch. re-ask on that
list giving your current version.
I believe the problem with ttf justification was related to using space as a
splitting character in dynamically subsetted fonts. Someone posted a fix for
that problem to the users list and I think that has gone in to the code now, but
I'm not sure if it is on the stable branch or not.

hi,
no success at the reportlab-users list.
i also applied the 'spaces patch to fix para splitting'-patch but it's
still not justifying the text...
is there an other solution?
thanks alot!!

I did this once and can't remember how <blush> so I read the
reportlab user guid. It says to unzip the reportlab archive - this
is on w2k, BTW, with Python23 - to a directory and make a file
called reportlab.pth in the pythod dir. The only line in this file
is supposed to be the path to the reportlib dir.
Then I'm instructed to open the ... ok I'll close and reopen ... the
python cmd line interpreter and type

Hi, I've been using pdflatex to dump ranges of pages from a PDF file via
Python. However, I was looking at the Reportlab toolkit and was wondering
if this operation would be possible using this toolkit as well.
Admittedly, I have'nt read the documentation in detail, but I was
wondering if anybody could provide any pointers to extracting pages from a
PDF via Python without using pdflatex
Thanks,
Rajarshi

I have been trying all day to get this to work. My complete code is
below. I can get my text into the PDF, I can get my image in the PDF.
What I can't get to work is frames so that the image (logo) appears to
the right of the text. The image always appears first and then the text
below on the next line.
Please help.

I need to create multi lingual invoices from reportlab. I think it is
possible to use UTF 8 strings but there is a problem with the font. I
could not find any free TTF font that can do latin1, latin2, arabic,
chinese and other languages at the same time. Is there a single font
that is able to handle these languages? (Most of our invoices will be
for EN, FR, DE, HU, SK, CZ, RO but some of them needs to be in Chinese.)
Thanks,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
