PDFlib ブロックを含む PDF ページをインポートし、すべてのブロックに処理を行います。PDFlib ブロックは pCOS 経由で取得され、ブロック配置関数は出力ページ上にブロックを視覚できるようにします。実用例としては、ブロックに外部のデータソースから取得したデータを配置するような場合が考えられます。
/*
* Block starter:
* Import a PDF page containing Blocks and fill text and image
* Blocks with some data. For each recipient of the simulated
* mailing a separate page with personalized information is
* generated.
*
* The Textflow Blocks are processed with variable text lengths in mind:
* if a Block doesn't fully use its vertical space or requires excess
* space, the next Block is moved up or down accordingly.
*
* Required software: PPS 10
* Required data: Block PDF (template), images, font
