[reportlab-users] drawing on canvas while using platypus

[Rafael Lopes]

If it is something like a header and footer use a PageTemplate. You
can change dynamically the PageTemplate with the Flowables
NextPageTemplate and PageBreak.


If it is something created with the other flowables, like some figure
or image, I think it's better to extend Flowable and implement
drawOn() or/and draw().
