You could create a table of the data with PDF::Table

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use PDF::API2;
use PDF::Table;

# test hash
my @cols = qw(name class other);
my %data = ();
for my $i ('001'..'100'){
  for (@cols){
    $data{'id'.$i}{$_} = $_.$i;
  }
};

# create data array 
my @tbl;
push @tbl ,\@cols;
for my $id (sort keys %data){
  push @tbl, [ @{$data{$id}}{@cols} ];
}  

# create pdf
my $pdf = new PDF::API2(-file => "table_of_data.pdf");
$pdf->mediabox(595, 842); # A4
my $page = $pdf->page;
my $pdftable = new PDF::Table;
my (undef, undef, $boty) = $pdftable->table(
     $pdf,
     $page,
     \@tbl,
     x => 50,
     w => 495,
     start_y => 800,
     next_y  => 800,
     start_h => 750,
     next_h  => 750,
     padding => 5,
     padding_right => 10,
);
$pdf->saveas();
