I don't think that time of last update is a good index of quality of a
module.
Anyway Catalyst::View::PDF::API2 was my first view for Catalyst
and I've used Catalyst::View::PDF::Reuse as starting template.
Sorry, I've just updated few documentation, and part you wanted was left
there for my mistake.
PDF::Reuse has built in capability to modify existing PDF, while
my view was bornt to permit the PDF::API2 interface from Template
Toolkit.
Anywa, thank you, I can improve the C::V::PDF::API2 POD and I'll insert
a note: look at Catalyst::View::PDF::Reuse if you want to use an
existing PDF.
