+ReportLab is a software library that lets you directly create
+documents in Adobe's Portabe Document Format (PDF) using the Python
+programming language.
+
+The ReportLab library directly creates PDF based on your graphics
+commands. There are no intervening steps. Your applications can
+generate reports extremely fast - sometimes orders of magnitude
+faster than traditional report-writing tools.
+
+The ReportLab library is expected to be useful in at least the
+following contexts:
+
+- Dynamic PDF generation on the web
+- High-volume corporate reporting and database publishing
+- An embeddable print engine for other applications, including
+  a 'report language' so that users can customize their own reports.
+- A 'build system' for complex documents with charts, tables
+  and text such as management accounts, statistical reports and
+  scientific papers
+- Going from XML to PDF in one step!
