well.
I have a software written in Unibasic Language (
Url), and usually I send the output of an elaboration to a printer using the lp command.
A client of mine have asked to send the output of this elaboration to an existing pdf file (that has a banner and a footer), modifying therefore the pdf file in the central part (adding the result of this elaboration.
I can send first the result to a text file and then i could insert this result (in the text file form) in the middle of the pdf file. I don't know Python, but i know a little Perl. Nevertheless, Idon't know if Unibasic may manage the Perl language.
Alternatively, I could create the pdf file from zero, inserting the banner and then the text result.
