Hi all,

I want to share a python script that I wrote for automatically filling the CDS-PDF-2025-2026_PDF_Template.pdf from the CDS-PDF-2025-2026-Excel_Template.xlsx.

This process can be used with python installed on your computer, but I have also included a .exe file which will work on any windows computer with no need to install python. Please check out my github page if you're interested. Instructions for using the script are posted there.

Best,

Thank you so much, James, for sharing this.

We are trying to implement the code for the first time, can we connect with you if we have any questions?
