Try printing something other than `item`, eg. just a simple 
scalar "test value", to ensure you're not simply printing blank values.

Also, try ending with pdf.prPage(). I was having problems with 
blank PDFs and that may have fixed it; I can't recall exactly, I 
tried heaps of methods before getting it all working right with 
multi-page PDFs.
