I've been a bit quiet for the past month or so, mostly because projects
both at work and home have taken up a lot of my time. One of the home
projects has involved creating some report documents in PDF. When first
thinking about this, I was looking at PDF::API2, and various other PDF
modules, but was struck at how much layout work is put into the code. I
don't like having to mix the two, as if I have to change anything in the
layout it means changing the code. Reading a [0]recent article on
perl.com only reaffirms that. If you're creating a special document, this
might work for you, but it doesn't for me.

Thanks to [1]Andrew Ford and [2]wikibooks, I have been learning how to
mix [3]LaTeX with [4]Template Toolkit.
