That didn't even occur to me, I had a different problem than you were having, I wanted to pipe it through a tied GPG filehandle and ran into problems I'm assuming due to the tied filehandle interface so the hack might still come in handy for some.

One of the things I ended up doing was a rudimentary line oriented PDF printer. (Generates the multiple pages, pagenums, headers and footers automatically). Not clean enough for CPAN yet but if there was some interest in it, I could take the time to polish it.
