1.安装reportlab库

http://www.reportlab.com/ftp/

ubuntu可以直接 apt-get install python-reportlab

2.实验

 

>>> from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
>>> def hello():
    c = canvas.Canvas("hello World.pdf")  //指定pdf目录和文件名
    c.drawString(100,100,"helo World")    //输出区域及内容
    c.showPage()
    c.save()                                                //保存

综合案例

 

>>> import datetime，subprocess
>>> from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
>>> from reportlab.lib.units import inch
>>>
>>> def dir_report():
    p = subprocess.Popen("dir",shell=True,stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
    return p.stdout.readlines()

>>> def create_pdf(input,output="dir_report.pdf"):
    now = datetime.datetime.today()
    date = now.strftime("%h %d %Y %H:%M:%S")
    c = canvas.Canvas(output)
    textobj = c.beginText()
    textobj.setTextOrigin(inch,11*inch)
    textobj.textLines('''''
        This history sub dir and file is
        time is %s''' % date)
    for line in input:
        textobj.textLine(line.strip())
    c.drawText(textobj)
    c.showPage()
    c.save()


>>> report = dir_report()
>>> create_pdf()
