<tt>Hi all,<br>
I'm new using reportlab and I have some troubles with tables. <br>
I want insert a pargraph into a table cell
(data.append([Paragraph(text,style),Paragraph(text1,style)]), two
colums one row table, I think)<br>
But when I try to build my pdf file I get this error:<br>
<br>
Traceback (most recent call last):<br>

'&lt;Paragraph at 1079373196&gt;Isabel I.aren (1558-163) eta J'<br>
<br>
It seems something with the Paragraph width, but I don't know what. I
search the usermanual and reference guide for something to set the
paragraph width, but I don't see nothing.<br>
<br>
Any hint with this????<br>
