Hello Zopistas

With all the ZDP excitement and discussions related to nicely formated documents, I would like to do an early release of ZpdfDocument.

ZpdfDocument

ZpdfDocument is Zope wrap around Zpdf (included in the distribution) providing a through the web interface and management of style parameters as properties, similar to a standard Zope DTML Document. Generated PDF documents are cached in volatile attributes.

Zpdf

Native python library for generating Portable Document Format (PDF) documents. Provided mainly in support of StruturedText and is therefore limited to text. However it provides a nice class interface to PDF document generation.

The main structure in a PDF document is a Document which contains a number of elements defined in the elements.py module. The pages are collected in a hierarchical manner under a root object and can share common resources through shared dictionaries. The PDF language is, like postscript a general page description language, and provides no tools for higher level document formatting. The object model of this module was designed for simple applications and facilitates easy document formatting.
