Great! Any way of contributing your code to the community? I just started to switch from PEAR::File_PDF to Zend_Pdf but I'm kind of disappointed that Zend_Pdf is still at the same spot as a year ago what concerns improved text functions. I played around with Zend_Pdf_Cell presented in issue http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-1254 but it does not work as expected (e.g. character width is not calculated correctly, center alignment is no real center alignment, line wrapping does not seem to work at all,...). We all would terribly appreciate your piece of code! Take care Philip
