Re^2: PDF Letter format

That part is understandable, my point is more towards the control over the text in here, notice the spaces between paragraphs:

my $summary = "
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Vestibulum ac
+ libero dui. Sed massa quam,
 ultricies in faucibus nec, volutpat sed velit. Donec aliquet, elit si
+t amet hendrerit eleifend,
 augue augue volutpat enim, quis posuere neque arcu eget nisi. Vestibu

 blandit ut, pulvinar mattis lorem. Sed urnaest, ullamcorper quis feug

 Donec facilisis dolor nibh, sit amet lacinia est viverra vel.
 Praesent in leo id tellus sagittis luctus.

Maecenas quis ante mollis, viverra eros nec, luctus ante. Duis eget sa

You can create multi-line text like this `$txt->lead(13); # line spacing foreach my $para (@paragraphs){ $txt->translate(20,$y); # width, max height $txt->paragraph($para, 490, 800, align => "left" ); (undef, $y) = $txt->textpos(); $y -= 20; # paragraph spacing }` [download] poj	[reply] [d/l]

For my sanity, the answer to my own question will be changing this line: `my @all_lines = split/\n+/, $summary;` [download] To this: `my @all_lines = split/\n/, $summary;` [download] This way, “split” will only match one new line character and if I want to add new lines, I just type it. But any suggestions is always welcome!	[reply] [d/l] [select]
