PDFGen | Simple C PDF Writer/Generation library | Document Editor library

EDIT:
So lambda function projects can be uploaded as zip files.
I think this lambdazip.sh is a shell script used to zip the project. I have been manually zipping the project through the Finder on my MacOS.
After I cd to my /bin, I run

EDIT 3:
So the problem may likely be in the set-up and configuration of my Lambda Layer Dependencies. I have a /bin directory containing 3 files:

• lambdazip.sh
• pdftk
• libgcj.so.10
  

pdftk is a pdf library, and libgcj is a dependency for PDFtk.
lambdazip.sh seems to set & modify PATH Variables.

I have tried uploading all 3 as 1 lambda layer.
I have tried uploading all 3 as 3 separate lambda layers.
I have not tried customizing the .zip file names, I know sometimes the Lambda Layer wants you to name the .zip file a specific name dependent on the language.
I have not tried customizing the "compatible architectures" & "compatible runtime" lambda layer settings.

EDIT 2:
I tried renaming the Lambda Layer as Python.zip because I heard that sometimes you need a specific naming convention for the Lambda Layer to work correctly. This also failed & produced the same error.

EDIT:
I have tried pulling the .py files out of the /surveys directory, so when they are zipped, they are in the root folder, but I still receive the same error: Runtime.ImportModuleError: Unable to import module 'lambda_function': No module named 'surveys

Which files do I need to zip? Do I need to move certain files to the root?
I learned that I had accidentally zipped the directory which commonly caused this error.
I needed to zip the contents of the directory, which is a common solution.
Unfortunately this did not work for me.

I have a Lambda Function, and the code I have uploaded is a zipped folder of my /Archive directory.
From what I understand, many of the people who run into this "[ERROR] Runtime.ImportModuleError: Unable to import module 'lambda_function':" have issues because of their Lambda Handler.

My Lambda handler is: lambda_function.lambda_handler so this doesn't appear to be my issue.

Another common problem I've noticed on Stackoverflow, appears to be with how people are compressing & zipping the files they upload to the Lambda Function.

Do I need to move my lambda_function.py? Sometimes this CloudWatch error occurs because the lambda_function.py is not in the ROOT directory.

Does my survey directory need to move?

I think the folders & directories I have here may be causing my issue.

Do I need to zip the directories individually?

Can I resolve this error by Zipping the entire project?

For more information, I also have a Lambda Layer for PDF Toolkit, called pyPDFtk in the codebase. In that Lambda layer is a zipped /bin with binaries inside.

If there is anything I can alter/change within my code or AWS configuration, please let me know, and I can return new CloudWatch error logs for you.

I want to read data from a ms excel file and edit an existing words document using the data from excel to fill in bookmarks and then save it as a pdf. So far I have been able to read to data successfully using openpyxl but I'm struggling with the editing and saving part. It would be great if someone can help.

my code:

I can create a PDF file using reportlab in a Django application. However, I can't add it into a FileField in a model. I wonder how to transfer an io.BytesIO data into FileField in Django.

This is summary of my views.py.

I am very new to using Reportlabs and am trying to find a better way to go about generating full page shipping labels that look like this:

so far I have this code (allbeit poorly written):

I'm trying to manually create a PDF document (using the PDFGen C code on github). This is on a small footprint device with limited storage.

All works fine until I want to embed (say) the Unicode Ohms character (U+2126).

Below is the test file I'm using, which should show "Hello" with an Ohms symbol after the 'H'.

However, it actually shows "H!&ello".

I have a pdf in my static files, I need to add it some text and let the user download it, but the download part gives me some problems, here is part of my code:

views.py

I'm trying to horizontally centre a simple text on a custom size PDF using reportlab. My code is below. I've tried using doc.drawCentredString but this then chops the beginning of the text off. As it is right now the text aligns at the bottom left corner. But as the text will be dynamic I can't really set a fixed horizontol position because it won't always end up centred.

My code is:

I want to print multiple pages from Qt through PDF file. So I created a simple project to try it but this is just printing the shown elements without the items inside the scroll area...

Code:
