16       Adds a page to the PDF document.
17
18   count()
19       Returns page count.
20
21   kids()
22       Returns ref to a list of page ids.
23
24   list()
25       Returns page list.
26

32       segment.
33
34   lineto($x, $y)

36
37   curveto($x1, $y1, $x2, $y2, $x3, $y3)
38       Appends a Bezier  curve  to the path. The curve extends from the
39       current point to (x3 ,y3) using (x1 ,y1) and (x2 ,y2) as the Bezier
40       control points.The new current point is (x3 ,y3).
41
42   rectangle($x, $y, $w, $h)
43       Adds a rectangle to the current path.
44
45   closepath()
46       Closes the current subpath by appending a straight line segment from
47       the current point to the starting point of the subpath.
48
49   newpath()
50       Ends the path without filling or stroking it.
51
52   stroke()
53       Strokes the path.
54
55   closestroke()
56       Closes and strokes the path.
57
58   fill()
59       Fills the path using the non-zero winding number rule.
60
61   fill2()
62       Fills the path using the even-odd rule.
63
64   line($x1, $y1, $x2, $y2)
65       Draw a  line between ($x1, $y1) and ($x2, $y2). Combined moveto /
66       lineto / stroke command.
67
68   set_width($w)
69       Set the width of subsequent lines to "w" points.
70
71   setgray($value)
72       Sets the color space to DeviceGray and sets the gray tint to use for
73       filling paths.
74
75   setgraystroke($value)
76       Sets the color space to DeviceGray and sets the gray tint to use for
77       stroking paths.
78
79   setrgbcolor($r, $g, $b)
80       Sets the fill colors used for normal text or filled objects.
81
82   setrgbcolorstroke($r, $g, $b)
83       Set the color  of the subsequent drawing operations. Valid r, g, and b
84       values are each between 0.0 and 1.0, inclusive.
85
86       Each color ranges from 0.0 to 1.0, i.e., darkest red (0.0) to brightest
87       red(1.0).  The same holds for green and blue.  These three colors mix
88       additively to produce the colors between black (0.0, 0.0, 0.0) and
89       white (1.0, 1.0, 1.0).
90
91       PDF distinguishes between  the stroke  and  fill operations and
92       provides separate color settings for each.
93

117
118   string($font, $size, $x, $y, $text $alignment)
119       Add text to the current page using the font object at the given size
120       and position.  The point (x, y) is the bottom left corner of the
121       rectangle containing the text.
122
123       The optional alignment can be 'r' for right-alignment and 'c' for
124       centered.
125
126       Example :
127
128           my $f1 = $pdf->font(
129              'Subtype'  => 'Type1',
130              'Encoding' => 'WinAnsiEncoding',
131              'BaseFont' => 'Helvetica'
132           );
133
134           $page->string($f1, 20, 306, 396, "some text");
135
136   string_underline($font, $size, $x, $y, $text, $alignment)
137       Draw a line for underlining.The parameters are the same as for the
138       string function but only the line is drawn. To draw an underlined
139       string you must call both,string and string_underline. To change the
140       color of  your text  use the "setrgbcolor()".  It  returns the length
141       of the string. So its return value can be used directly for the
142       bounding box of an annotation.
143
144       Example :
145
146           $page->string($f1, 20, 306, 396, "some underlined text");
147
148           $page->string_underline($f1, 20, 306, 396, "some underlined text");
149
150   stringl($font, $size, $x, $y $text)
151       Same as "string()".
152
153   stringr($font, $size, $x, $y, $text)
154       Same as "string()" but right aligned (alignment 'r').
155
156   stringc($font, $size, $x, $y, $text)
157       Same as "string()" but centered (alignment 'c').
158
159   string_width($font, $text)
160       Return the size of the text using the given font in default user space
161       units.This does not contain the size of the font yet, to get the length
162       you must multiply by the font size.
163
164   printnl($text, $font, $size, $x, $y)
165       Similar to  "string()" but parses the string for newline and prints
166       each part on a separate line. Lines spacing is the same as the
167       font-size.Returns the number of lines.
168
169       Note the different parameter sequence.The first call should specify all
170       parameters, font is  the absolute minimum, a warning will be given for
171       the missing y position and 800  will  be assumed. All subsequent
172       invocations can omit all but the string parameters.
173
174       ATTENTION:There is no provision for changing pages.If you run out of
175       space on the current page this will draw the string(s) outside the page
176       and it will be invisible.
177
178   block_text(\%params)
179       Add block of text to the page. Parameters are explained as below:
