image(box:tuple[int,int,int,int],im:Image.Image,dpi:int|None=None)→None[source]¶

Draw a PIL image, centered in the given box.

line(xy0:tuple[int,int],xy1:tuple[int,int])→None[source]¶

Draws a line between the two points. Coordinates are given inPostScript point coordinates (72 points per inch, (0, 0) is the lowerleft corner of the page).

rectangle(box:tuple[int,int,int,int])→None[source]¶
