I am trying to get a table with data saved in svg, pdf or png file. Are there any libraries to do it?
I've tried pygal, but it seems that they provide only charts saving.
Edited: This table is just a couple of arrays with data, and I need to build a nice table from them
Use tabulate, the documentation can be found here

I am trying to export all available data from this public Kibana/Elastic data table to a .csv file. However, using the export-button only gives me 7735 entries while there are many more. I assume this has to do something with an export size limit. Is there a method to obtain all entries?
I already tried the Elasticsearch Python package, but it appears I need the API key for this (which I don't have as I'm not the creator). Does anyone have other suggestions I could try? Thanks in advance!
I'd like to use the python-pptx library to read the embedded data sheet behind a chart inside a presentation. I've seen the documentation to replace chart data, but I can't figure out how to read data.
I've already referred to Read chart data from existing chart using python-pptx but this is not what I'm looking for.
chart.part.chart_workbook.xlsx_part.blob will give you the Excel binary (bytes).
From there you can save that as a file or read it as an in-memory file using io.BytesIO(), or whatever suits your purposes.
You could, for example, open it with openpyxl and read and write the Excel "file".
Is there a way of deleting the tables inside a PDF using Python? So far I've been working with pdfplumber to parse through the text within the PDF, and wanted to know is there is a way to ignore or delete the text inside a the tables.
I would recommend using a Python package called Camelot. It is very efficient in extracting tabular data from PDF's. Here is the link to the documentation.
There is an excel file with different sheets which is included by different charts and data. I want to make a powerpoint for my daily presentation automatically by python(PPTx lib in python).
my problem is I have to copy the charts which exist in excel and past in my powerpoint which is created by python (pptx). I want to know is there any possibility to export charts from excel file to powerpoint by python?
There is no direct API support for this in python-pptx. However, there are other approaches that might work for you.
Perhaps the simplest would be to use a package like openpyxl to read the data from the spreadsheet and recreate the chart using python-pptx, based on the data read from Excel.
If you wanted to copy the chart exactly, this is also possible but would require detailed knowledge of the Open Packaging Convention (OPC) file format and XML schemas to accomplish. Essentially, you would copy the chart-part for the chart into the PowerPoint package (zip file) and connect it to a graphic-frame shape on a slide. You'd also need to embed the Excel worksheet into the PowerPoint, perhaps repeatedly (once for each chart) and make any format-specific adjustments (Excel and PowerPoint handle charts slightly differently in certain details).
This latter approach would be a big job, so I would recommend trying the simpler approach first and see if that will get it done for you.
So I have a collection of close to 90 photographs along with a caption and the date stored in a text file. The images are of variable sizes and I would like to automate the procedure of converting this data into a PowerPoint presentation, with one picture on one slide along with its date and caption as the Title. Any reliable methods present?
Check out the python-pptx library. Its useful for creating and updating PowerPoint .pptx files.
Also for some quick examples in python-pptx with screenshots, you can check this link.
Another approach is to automate powerpoint through win32com. I have succesfully done this to augenerate presentations with lots of images following the instructions at http://www.s-anand.net/blog/automating-powerpoint-with-python/ .
