<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 438817 by <a href="/recipes/users/2011468/">Yuriy Tkachenko</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/text/">text</a>). </p> <p>By default ReportLab PDF library <a <a href="http://href=%22http://www.reportlab.com%22%3Ehttp://www.reportlab.com" rel="nofollow">href="http://www.reportlab.com">http://www.reportlab.com</a></a> doesn't allow easy using Cyrillic fonts for generating PDF documents. The following example explains how to use any font in the Adobe AFM ('Adobe Font Metrics') and PFB ('Printer Font Binary') format (aka Type 1) which supports Unicode Cyrillic characters (glyphs). It assumes that you have font files named 'a010013l.afm' and 'a010013l.pfb' in the same directory with this example. The font files can be found in /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 directory in many Linux distributions.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 438818 by <a href="/recipes/users/2011468/">Yuriy Tkachenko</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/text/">text</a>). </p> <p>This example uses ReportLab PDF library <a <a href="http://href=%22http://www.reportlab.com%22%3Ehttp://www.reportlab.com" rel="nofollow">href="http://www.reportlab.com">http://www.reportlab.com</a></a> and made from reportlab/demos/stdfonts/stdfonts.py demo. It generates tables showing all Type 1 fonts in Cyrillic cp1251 encoding in /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 Linux directory. It may be helpful for choosing most suitable fonts for your documents.</p>

<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 413404 by <a href="/recipes/users/631476/">gian paolo ciceri</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/distributed/">distributed</a>). </p> <p>It's only a matter to put together Reportlab to generate a pdf file on the fly and Cherrypy xmlrpc filter to serve it as an XML/RPC binary object (base64-encoded).</p>
