smmapdfs: Sudo make me a pdf sandwich
smmapdfs is used for generating pdf files from django models by overlaying the text of fields onto a background pdf file. It differs from other django pdf apps such as django-easy-pdf and django-pdfkit in that it is intended to be used by graphics designers wishing to overlay some text onto a pre-prepaired pdf background.
smmapdfs can further be used to send out emails with the pdfs. It was initially intended to send out diplomas at the end of a cycling competition.
