imprint

This program is a system for data aggregation and presentation through Microsoft Word documents. It uses templates to define dynamically generated portions of the document, which the user can construct in arbitrary ways. The content of the document is separated from the style information and the content generation.

Using this system does not remove the need to write the initial draft of the document you want to create, or the need to generate the data you plan on aggregating. This program is only useful if you plan on generating a similarly formatted document many times with the same content but different data sources. It is not useful for one-off reports or documents.

See the documentation at https://imprint.readthedocs.io/en/latest for more information, including the history of the project, turorials, and API references and installation instructions.

The source and binaries for this program are available on PyPI. The simplest installation method is with pip:

pip install imprint[all]

The extra [all] is recommended for but not required. Installing from source is also an option, by running

python setup.py install

in the root folder of the project source distribution. The source distribution, including documentation can be found at https://github.com/madphysicist/imprint.
