Hallo,

has anybody an idea how to make small formated documents redy to print 
with python?

I would like to print address labels as

    firstname lastname
    street and number
    cip and city

The best should be to form a PDF and send it to the label printer. So 
the PDF could be given the pagesize (labelsize) and a minimum format 
(boldface). But may be there is another light-weight-format besides PDF?

Any idea?

Ulrich
