I'll try to be more specific... I'm very new to technical forums, so asking the right question is decidedly tricky.
Do you know of commands or code segments available in python to call up other programs?
I've successfully used python to create the proper LaTEX file. Now I want it to call LaTEX on it's own to generate the .dvi file, then take that file and convert it to PDF. Surely there's a way.

Thank you for your promptness, but, as far as I can tell, these are both dead ends. Here's what I found...
The first link is for assistance in documenting python files, for which process (I'm told) many users often employ LaTEX. Presented here, related to LaTEX, is only a very basic overview of how LaTEX works. A comprehensive understanding of LaTex can be gained from Kopka/Daly's "Guide to LaTEX".

How can I use python to execute files through other programs?
My objective is a Python program which ultimately creates a PDF.
Presently, my program takes in a .csv file and creates a .tex file. Using cygwin, I can take a .tex file and convert it to .pdf in this manner:
$ latex example.tex && dvipdf example.dvi example.pdf
[LaTEX is an open-source computer typesetting language. The first part of the command generates a .dvi from the .tex. "dvipdf"...
