pdfrw can turn preexisting PDF pages into Form XObjects that you can
use with ReportLab.  Look at the second watermarking example here:

> Is it possible to embed a PDF file as a background in a Reportlab generated PDF file. I have a PDF file of a form that I would like to fill in with data from my application. This is not necessarily a PDF form. What I would like to do is use the PDF file as the background, then I would measure out the locations of the various fields and print data on the canvas at those locations.
