I’m currently using ReportLab in Python to generate PDF documents with two frames, where each frame should display two paragraphs. However, the output I’m getting looks like the following:

My code:

def generate_pdf(output_file, df):
    doc = BaseDocTemplate(output_file, pagesize=A4, topMargin=90)
    styles = getSampleStyleSheet()
    story = []
    

    # Create two frames for two columns
    frame_width = ((doc.width / 2) - doc.leftMargin ) + 80 # Divide the width equally between two columns
    left_frame = Frame(doc.leftMargin, doc.bottomMargin, frame_width, doc.height - doc.topMargin, id='left_frame')
    right_frame = Frame(doc.leftMargin + frame_width, doc.bottomMargin, frame_width, doc.height - doc.topMargin, id='right_frame')

    # Create disclaimer
    disclaimer_frame = Frame(doc.leftMargin, doc.bottomMargin, doc.width, doc.height - doc.topMargin, id='disclaimer_frame')
    
    # Chart Frame
    chart_frame = Frame(doc.leftMargin, doc.bottomMargin, doc.width, doc.height - doc.topMargin, id='chart_frame')

    
    title_style = ParagraphStyle(name='Title', fontName='Helvetica-Bold', fontSize=12, leading=16)
    content_style = ParagraphStyle(name='BodyText', fontName='Helvetica', fontSize=9, leading=14)
    content_style.alignment = 0  # Justify alignment
    
    for index, row in df.iterrows():
      
        title = row['Title']
        hyperlink = row['Hyperlink']
        paragraph = row['Text']
        

        # Create a hyperlink with the title
        title_para = Paragraph(f'<a href="{hyperlink}">{title}</a>', title_style)
        story.append(title_para)
        
        # Add space between title and content
        story.append(Spacer(1, 6))  # Adjust the height as needed
        
        # Add paragraph content
        p = Paragraph(paragraph, content_style)
        story.append(p)
     
        
       
    # Define page templates for both news content and disclaimer
    news_template = PageTemplate(id='news_page', frames=[left_frame, right_frame], onPage=add_header_title)

    # Build the news content first
    doc.addPageTemplates([PageTemplate(id='news_page', frames=[left_frame, right_frame], onPage=add_header_title),
                          PageTemplate(id='charts_page', frames=[chart_frame], onPage=add_header),
                      PageTemplate(id='Disclaimer',frames=[disclaimer_frame],onPage=add_header),
                      ])
    
    doc.build(story)

The articles originated from CSV files, where I crafted the texts:

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Get today's date
    today_date = datetime.date.today()
    # Format the date as needed
    formatted_date = today_date.strftime("%B %d, %Y")
    # Generate the output file name
    output_file = f"News- {formatted_date}.pdf"
    df = pd.read_excel("./02. Data/Articles.xlsx", sheet_name="articles")  
    generate_pdf(output_file, df)
