The script quoted below (.../message/551) begins:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use PDF::API2;
use Text::PDF::Utils;

$pdf=PDF::API2->new;

$sh=$pdf->shade;

If you replace the line "use Text::PDF::Utils" by "use  
PDF::API2::Basic::PDF::Utils" and replace the line "$sh=$pdf->shade"  
by "$sh=$pdf->shading" I think you will find the script works as it  
should.
