So i am running a small business website and am looking to generate flyers based on the data from the database and place a few pictures in the flyer as well. I have had some (very little) luck trying to do this through latex, but I don't really understand the syntax and it seems that it is more designed for long documents, not so much for single page flyers.
I guess I am looking for some other tools that I could use for pdf creation or other suggestions. The whole site is coded in php/mysql and I don't mind using other languages, but I'm kinda at a loss as to building pdfs with latex.
I was hoping for some kind of tool that existed where I could define X/Y coordinates for individual text blocks and picture placement.
Does such a thing exist? I'm still googleing but anyone has any suggestions, I am all ears!
