This module is misnamed, in my opinion, because it is just as good at PDF creation, as it is for PDF reuse. I've used this for years to generate the Sudoku, Killer Sudoku, Slitherlink, etc. files on my puzzle website, krazydad.com, as well as for preparing puzzles and mazes for publication, and it's a great workhorse.
I've since tried a few other PDF creation methods (including a few modules in Ruby, Processing, and C++/Cairo), and I still prefer using this module with Perl.

Very impressive! It's fast, easy to use and generates well formed and lightweight PDFs. The ability to use another document as a template and to embed literal PDF commands in the code makes this a very flexible tool. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Really simple and fast interface to reuse PDF files for serial letters.

The functionality of this module is great for a variety of simple PDF generation tasks.
The interface, on the other hand, is abysmal. With unconditionally exported functions and global state, there's no way to have more than one PDF::Reuse instance at a time. The ability to output to an arbitrary filehandle or to a string is also lacking.

PDF::Reuse made my life better. I had to collect 20000 pages from more than 10000 other pdfs spread over the filesystem and PDF::Reuse made the job perfect. Especially valueable is the possibility to write PDF-commands directly into the new document. Thanks to the author!

If you want to assemble PDF's by combining templates and overlaying text then this module is an excellent choice. It can also be used to create PDFs from scratch. There are good examples in the documentation to get you running quickly. The PDF generation is blindingly fast. The output quality is excellent. The author/maintainer has been very responsive about incorporating patches and adding new functionality. Highly recommended.

I've used so many java pdf generators and this is by far the fastest, most standards compliant, feature loaded module I've seen. The standard output file size is always smaller than what I put into it. Stamping bar codes and other features is simple. Great work on this project.
