I've searched around for drag-and-drop editors which act similarly to MSAccess report builder but generates Report Markup Language™. However, I could not find any existing products.
Could it be true then that everyone hand codes the designs of their PDFs? Surely there must be a WYSIWYG editor somewhere.
Anyone know of any? It would help tremendously.
Note. Would there be any demand for one to be built?
Microsoft Word is a common example that helps to define a WYSIWYG editor.
WYSIWYG (pronounced wiz-ee-wig) is a type of editing software that allows users to see and edit content in a form that appears as it would when displayed on an interface, webpage, slide presentation or printed document. WYSIWYG is an acronym for "what you see is what you get."
In the early 1980s, the phrase "what you see is what you get" was abbreviated to "WYSIWYG" by computer users who sought a term to describe software that accurately reflects the appearance of the finished product.
In computing, WYSIWYG (/ˈwɪziwɪɡ/ WIZ-ee-wig), an acronym for What You See Is What You Get, is a system in which editing software allows content to be edited in a form that resembles its appearance when printed or displayed as a finished product, such as a printed document, web page, or slide presentation.
Thanks to OpenERP tool sxw2rml , you can use Open Office writer as a WYSIWYG editor for RML . It takes old style Oowriter files and generates clean rml out of them which you can then manipulate .
Flow that works for me is
Oowriter [doc] ----> openerp_sxw2rml.py [rml] ----> trml2pf.py [pdf]
