[reportlab-users] Congratulations

[Anthony Plunkett]

I'm a newcomer to reportlab and I've been blown away by how simple it 
was to create a label making program. We're opening a new grocery store 
this coming Friday, and I was frustrated by our current off the shelf 
label program, so I thought I'd try making my own to automate the 
tagging process-- the result is:

The program takes in a csv file and generals 32 labels per page, EAN 
format (though most the codes are UPC-A, but it's all compatible) 
everything works, scans fine, runs quickly, and looks great. Thanks to 
Paul and Andy for the StringWidth help, I used it to centre the 
descriptions and then work out if the Price area can be centred, or 
needs to be right justified depending on the length (to stop it running 
off the right edge of the tag).

Reportlab is a fantastic addition to my toolbox and I'm already thinking 
of other projects to use it on, so I just wanted to say thank you for 
all the work everyone's done to get it to where it is today.

Anthony.
