How to convert multiple images(jpeg) as a pdf file with multiple pages in windows.
Using Image library, i can convert every image as single pdf, i can merge those converted files to a single pdf file using pdfminer, but it is two way work.
I try to download MagicK, but couldn't get binary for windows. Is it possible to achieve using PIL ?
I'm not totally sure, but you can create a report with jasperReport and create a pdf file after. I believe python also can work with jasper reports.
what do you think? maybe is too much work.

I have WMI-files on my hdd, which I can open using some supporting tools (LogReader). In wmi-files, I have some report information as text module. I want to convert these files into .txt, .xml or some other datatype, which is suitable to use in python. So, I can use the information for further tasks. I tried to extract contents of WMI-Files in python but I couldn't accomplish it.
Is there any way to solve this problem of mine?

The Pillow docs mention being able to save multiple pages, but I can't find any other docs or code samples that tell you how to add pages to a new PDF.
You could try the following:
im.save('test.pdf', save_all=True)
By default, the output format is determined by the file extension. This is documented in the release notes.
Doesn't seem like this is currently possible with Pillow, I used reportlab to build a multi-page PDF from scratch:

I am trying to read JHOVE attribues from TIFF and JP2 files. Is there a python library that makes this possible?
I would use the tifflib python binding (for TIFF file) and jpylyzer (for JP2 file). You should be able to extract all meta data from the input file, just select the one you need.
How can I extract the tables, text and the pictures in an ODT(OpenDocumentText) file to output them to another ODT file using Python on Ubuntu?
OOoPy seems to be a good fit. I've never used it, but it comes with documentation and code examples, and it can read and write ODT files.
An easy way is to just rename the foo.odt to foo.zip and then extract it. the extracted directory contains many files including Pictures.
However I think it's better to change it's type to docx and then do the process on docx (extract it). Because it extract images with better name (image1, image2, ...).
I am using reportlab toolkit in Python to generate some reports in PDF format. I want to use some predefined parts of documents already published in PDF format to be included in generated PDF file. Is it possible (and how) to accomplish this in reportlab or in python library?
I know I can use some other tools like PDF Toolkit (pdftk) but I am looking for Python-based solution.
I'm currently using PyPDF to read, write, and combine existing PDF's and ReportLab to generate new content. Using the two package seemed to work better than any single package I was able to find.
If you want to place existing PDF pages in your Reportlab documents I recommend pdfrw. Unlike PageCatcher it is free.
I've used it for several projects where I need to add barcodes etc to existing documents and it works very well. There are a couple of examples on the project page of how to use it with Reportlab.
A couple of things to note though:
If the source PDF contains errors (due to the originating program following the PDF spec imperfectly for example), pdfrw may fail even though something like Adobe Reader has no apparent problems reading the PDF. pdfrw is currently not very fault tolerant.
Also, pdfrw works by being completely agnostic to the actual content of the PDF page you are placing. So for example, you wouldn't be able to use pdfrw inspect a page to see if it contains a certain string of text in the lower right-hand corner. However if you don't need to do anything like that you should be fine.
There is an add-on for ReportLab — PageCatcher.
