[clug-talk] Custom graphics in mail merge

[Greg Saunders]

I have been experimenting with with python and pisa to just this ... with
good success. You design your template in html and pisa (an html2pdf
converter using ReportLab) does the grunt work. Now you have a nicely
formated PDF that you can have your way with ... print, email, whatever.
