[reportlab-users] Appengine - Reportlab (Get Photo from Model)

[Martinho Arantes]

I´m using Google App Engine, Link <https://appengine.google.com/>.
Google App Engine doesn´t support PIL, but i´ve uploaded Reporlab and is
working fine, also with images.

I can build a PDF with some values, retrieve values from entities and get
photos from my source project and print to PDF.

The problem that i´m facing right now is when a user upload a photo, isn´t
displayed on his PDF.

I´ll show you a short pic tinypic.com/r/2ngeont/7, but the image shown is
uploaded by me not by the user.
