This is a fork of the PyFPDF library and fixes unicode issues. It allows usage
of non-latin-1 characters (e.g. Euro sign €) in Python 3. This is possible
by internally using a bytearray output buffer instead of a string (and should
also be more efficient). This library is used by
reportbro-lib <https://github.com/jobsta/reportbro-lib>_
(see also ReportBro <https://www.reportbro.com/>_).
PyFPDF is a library for PDF document generation under Python, ported from PHP
(see FPDF <http://www.fpdf.org/>_: "Free"-PDF, a well-known
PDFlib-extension replacement with many examples, scripts and
derivatives).
Compared with other PDF libraries, PyFPDF is simple, small and versatile, with advanced capabilities, and is easy to learn, extend and maintain.
You can install PyFPDF from PyPI, with easyinstall or from Windows installers. For example, using pip:
.. code:: shell
pip install reportbro-fpdf
To get the latest development version you can download the source code running:
.. code:: shell
git clone https://github.com/jobsta/pyfpdf.git cd pyfpdf python setup.py install
