Thanks robin,
I automated word with win32com, and had no problems with the text, but
the whole doc was in one font size, and I'm not sure how to edit every
single part of the doc :S... I'll try to work sth out...
Btw could you give me a brief explanation on using the print framework
(positioning and stuff)?!
Thanks
Zvonko

Hi
I'm working on a 'school application' (school database and stuff) for
windows, and one of the things that the app needs to do is to print
reports for pupils... the problem is that the report is a certified
document with empty lines which need to be fulfilled by the app... I
tried the htmleasyprinting but there's no way to put every word on
it's
place :S then I tried wxprintout but I couldn't make it work... I've
got
a perfect template written in Microsoft Word, so I'm wondering if
there
is a way to print it via wxpython, but that brings one more problem:
how
could the app replace the template's text with my text?!
If you want to go that route you can automate Word via win32com,
including manipulating the document and printing it. Or there are tools
like ReportLab that let you make PDF files from Python.
On the other hand, you should be able to get fairly accurate positioning
with the Print framework, you just need to set the scale factors right
and take into account the margins, paper sizes, etc.
