\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \ Method One: Using ReportLab ////////////////////////////////////////////// /////

Requirement already satisfied: Pillow in c:\pythonprojects\virtualenvs\apis\lib\site-packages
Requirement already satisfied: olefile in c:\pythonprojects\virtualenvs\apis\lib\site-packages (from Pillow)
