Overview ¶

Package main demonstrates the GxPDF Builder API for declarative PDF generation.

• Text styling: Bold, FontSize, TextColor, AlignCenter, AlignRight
• Vertical spacing with Spacer
• Row background colors for visual grouping
• Explicit PageBreak to start a new page
• KeepTogether to prevent section splits across pages
• Real Table API with header repeat, zebra stripes, ColSpan, cell padding
