Just wanted to thank everyone on this site for their help. This is my second post and you have all be very helpful.

What I am try to do here is create a table of contents page and my perl script is already using the module PDF::API2. I have all of my pages created and now I need to create a TOC that says which page each section starts on. My initial thoughts were to call $pdf->openpage(#) and have that number written to a stack that would be called in the TOC but I'm not sure what to do if a certain portion of the page rolls onto two or more pages. Also note that I will always have same amount of sections in the TOC so really all I need to worry about is what page they are on.

I'm kinda at a lose at where to start with this but would greatly appreciate the help. Thanks!
