I was thinking of using Grantlee to generate parts of the HTML code, one
part for each widget that will be placed in the layout dynamically, we can
also insert the profile photos dynamically as the HTML code.

So the Qt class will call Grantlee many times to fill in the <div> s (or
widgets in the main layout) dynamically and generate the full html code
that can be rendered by QWebPage and printed.
