This is a good idea. Thank you. I wanted to learn TeX anyway. The TeX 
installation is problematic. I also want to use this under MS Windows. 
Yes, I know here is MikTeX for Windows. But there is significant 
difference. ReportLab can be embedded into a small program created with 
py2exe. LaTeX on the other side is a 150MB separate installation package 
that must be installed separately by hand.

But in my particular case, it is still a good solution.

Thanks,
