hi all,

i am creating PDF document using PDF::API2 and PDF::Textblock. i have created blocks successfully but when i am adding large amount of text to block, it is not adding new page.

please some one suggest me how to add pdf pages automatically when your text is larger than a page, using PDF::Textblock?

Thanks!! 

my $pdf = PDF::API2->new( -file => "test1.pdf" );
my $tb= PDF::TextBlock->new({
     pdf       => $pdf,
     fonts     => {
        b => PDF::TextBlock::Font->new({
           pdf  => $pdf,
           font => $pdf->corefont( 'Helvetica-Bold',    -encoding => '
+latin1' ),
       #fillcolor => '#ff0000', 
        }),
     },
  });
$tb->text("$some text" and hyperlinks);
my($endw, $ypos, $overflow)= $tb->apply();
$tb->y($ypos);
$pdf->save;
$pdf->end;
