Everybody will tell you "reportlab", but AFAIK the open-source kit does not 
provide manipulation of existing pdf file contents - "only" creation. Besides 
it's targeted at CPython and it isn't 100% clear it runs perfectly on other 
implementations; so have a look at itextsharp - it might better fit your needs 
if you decide to use IronPython.
