  Doh,  you made me curious about whether it is possible to connect via COM toUNO with Python,  and yes it is! I claim to know that there is no information about how to do that withPython ( especially)  but it might be useful that you read documentationabout the Automation Bridge:
 urlLink http: udk. openoffice. org/ common/ man/
tutorial/ office_automation. html What I did is easily use the lines you write in VB for Python and itabsolutely worked: The following example will open a new writer document of OOo:  from win32com. client.
dynamic import Dispatch>  server =  Dispatch( 'com. sun. star.
ServiceManager')  odesktop =  server. CreateInstance( 'com. sun.
star. frame. Desktop')  odesktop. loadComponentfromURL( 'private:
factory/ swriter',  '_blank',  0, list is the equivalent to an array type of UNO. Now it should be easy for you to figure out how to export something to pdf,
I would just read how you do it with Starbasic ( OOo's own scriptinglanguage)  and then translate it into Python ( as you saw in my example it'sactually a very simple translation of how you would do it with Starbasic, VB)
