in thread How many languages are in your project?

I'd say look at PDF::Template, but it is all but orphaned and waiting for a new maintainer.
My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?

    I did but the lack of support for tables killed it for me. That and the fact that LaTeX does all the lay-out for you in a professional matter and the thousands of modules on CTAN - Comprehensive Tex Archive Network.

    A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    I heartily recommend PDF::API2. It was a very pleasent experience working with it, at a company I worked I completely replaced yucky Crystal Reports by Perl programs based on PDF::API2 and I wrote in no time a report module which could be used by users not knowing anything about Perl to generate PDF reports out of the database.
