Hello,

I am trying to generate a PDF File with a centered text in the middle of  
the page.

I have tryed to use the add\_text and add\_text\_wrapped methods, but the  
text either not fitting in the page, or the text is truncated.

Maybe I am not using correctly the API correctly ?

Thank you for your help
