Create a PDF or Printable version of change_list.html in Django Admin

Question

I would like to add a tool link at the top of my admin change_list.html, which I have already done, and have this link basically be able to produce some sort of printable document version of my models data based off of my current filter settings. Basically a print button in the admin change_list.html.

so far I have overridden the change_list.html to create the link, and I notice that this

<li>
    <a href="{{ choice.query_string|iriencode }}" class="addlink">
      {% blocktrans %}View PDF{% endblocktrans %}
    </a>
  </li>

gives you a link based on these choices.. but Im kinda lost as to the best/easiest way to do this..

Sorry, new to Django. I know I can use ReportLabs to generate pdfs, but not a 100% on how to get the filtered data from change_list to it.
