Python Imaging Library (PIL): create PDF from scratch

[zelegolas]

Hi,

I have some scan generated by SANE and i would like to do some
transformation (like crop, brightness and resize) and finaly put all
those images in PDF file.

With PIL i can do all the transformations that i want. But i don't
know how i can create from scratch a PDF. I'm not even sure that PIL
is the right library for that.

Any help/informations will be appreciate

PIL is great for graphics, but I use ReportLab's open source stuff (see
www.reportlab.org) for creating PDFs - that's what it was designed for,
and you can easily incorporate your graphics.

Like David said now i used PIL for individual images and reportlab to
generate a pdf.

Thanks for your advices
