Render a HTML overlay over existing PDF files
Project description
A wrapper for http://weasyprint.org/ which allows compositing with existing PDF files.
API: render(html) Input is a HTML string and output is the PDF bytes.
For weasyprint this needs cairo and cairocffi etc., this adds poppler for reading PDFs. These are best installed via your package manager:
apt install python3-gi-cairo gir1.2-poppler-0.18 python3-cairocffi python3-lxml gir1.2-pango-1.0
It parses the HTML looking for <img> tags with src urls ending “.pdf”. Each one begins a new page and copies all source pages overlaying the weasyprint output. The magic value “blank.pdf” outputs sections HTML without overlaying.
python -m htmloverpdf < test.html > test.pdf
