may be the following example is helpful
==========================================================
from pyx import *
c = canvas.canvas()
text.set(mode="latex")
c.text(0,10,r"This is a simple example for the usage of a parbox.",
[text.parbox(4)])
# If you do not like the indentation of the first line use the following or
# text.preamble(r"\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}")
c.text(0,5,r"\noindent This is a simple example for the usage of a parbox.",
[text.parbox(4)])
# If you want to define the linebreaks use the following
c.text(0,0,r"This is a\\ simple example\\ for the usage\\ of a parbox.",
[text.parbox(4)])
c.writeEPSfile("parbox_example")
==========================================================
The parbox is a concept from LaTeX and therefore you will find more about
this topic in the LaTeX documentation rather than in the PyX docs.
Best regards,
Gert
