Any HTML to Latex module available in Python that can be integrated into Django

Hi,

I have a web site, which needs to output HTML content as Latex

I don't know of any Python library that converts from HTML to LaTeX.
However, writing one should not be that difficult. It is at least much
easier than writing a LaTeX2Html translator. You could parse the HTML
code using for instance elementree[1] and Beautifulsoup[2]. You can
then iterate over the parsed html tree and output corresponding LaTeX
markup:
<h1>name</h2> -> \section{name}
<h2>name</h2> -> \subsection {name}
<ul> -> \begin{itemize}
<li>text</li> -> \item text
....

reStructuredText(http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html ) can
generate both LaTeX and HTML from simple text files. It is used to
document Django.

If you're familiar with XSLT then that should also be a good
candidate. The problem there is that things could get complicated, if
the HTML document is not a well-formed XML document.
