Yes, plenty. Replace the paragraph call with:
$text->translate( 300, 600 );
$overflow = $text->paragraph( "Hello, just a test. "x10, 200, 600 );
From perldoc PDF::API2::Content:
$overflow_text = $txt->paragraph $text, $width, $height, %options

nope, the operation is in points (cm = "set current matrix")
so this is slightly smiller than "A4".
write a script that demonstrates this and pack it up with your pdfs,
right into may email folder.

Hi,
Aside from rolling your own, no.

infinite loop in text->paragraph (0.40.91)
Hi,
I got stuck here after upgrading from 0.30r77 to 0.40.91. The following code
worked fine under 0.30r77 but ends up in an infinite loop in the
text->paragraph method under 0.40.91.
----------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use PDF::API2;
my $pdf = PDF::API2->new(-file => 'test.pdf');
my $page = $pdf->page();
my $text = $page->text();
my $font = $pdf->corefont('Verdana', -encode => 'latin1');
$text->font($font, 8);
$text->paragraph("Hello, just a test."x10, -x => 300, -y => 600, -h => 600,
-w => 200);
$pdf->save();
exit();
----------
Anyone any idea?
Cheers,
Markus
