Simple PDF Creator

Python PDF Generator

PdfPug is a simple Python PDF creator using easy to use APIs. It provides a variety of components and the ability to customise these components to suit different use cases.

Note: PdfPug is still very new and as such the APIs are not stable. It can be considered to be in pre-alpha stage!

...     "industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text "
...     "ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type"
...     " and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not "
...     "only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, "
...     "remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with "
...     "the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and "
