As you whish :-)
if in the package ie in the __init__.py (not the best idea)
from PDF import File as PDFFile # always possible
if File is defined in a module Objects
from PDF.Objects import File # as PDFFile is always possible.
Have you installed the reportlab package ? It is full of from ... import
.. and it generates PDF.
