title: Creating publication quality tables in python
body: <p>I'd like to create publication quality tables for output as svg or jpg or png images using  python.</p>
  
  <p>I'm familiar with the texttable module which produces nice text tables but if I have for example </p>
  
  <p><code>data = [['Head 1','Head 2','Head 3'],['Sample Set Type 1',12.8,True],['Sample Set Type 2',15.7,False]]</code></p>
  
  <p>and I wanted to produce something that looked like</p>
  
  <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zNYOg.jpg" alt="table image"></p>
  
  <p>Is there a module I can turn to, or can you point me to a process for going about it?</p>
