The samples don't contain multiline text
I know FPDF etc can do it. This library says was inspired by. but the demo.pdf doesn't contain a paragraph spanning multiple lines. It would be nice if it could be documented somewhere how to do it / whether its supported. Something like try_put_text(width, text) returning height and remaining text not fitting on page or similar.
multiline text is not part of pdf specification. it should be implemented in library or app using nimpdf primitives.
It's a common use case eventually. And as I said fpdf can do it: http://www.fpdf.org/en/doc/multicell.htm So it should eventually be documented maybe goal/no goal. Maybe this issue can be used to brainstorm about solutions or what to document. In the end it would be part of something bigger: A layout engine. Haskell has many doc libraries for formatting text and whatnot.
