Re: Help to Auto open generated pdf files

Hello

This is not a reportlab problem and would fit better to
http://stackoverflow.com/ or similar sites. You need something like
this:

        import sys, os, subprocess
        if sys.platform.startswith('darwin'):
            subprocess.call(('open', path))
        elif os.name == 'nt':
            os.startfile(path)
        elif os.name == 'posix':
            subprocess.call(('xdg-open', path))

Regards, T.
