Extend Existing PDFs
--------------------

It is possible to use existing PDFs as a template and extend the PDF where needed. You can either load the template PDF
within the TypoScript settings or within the Fluid template itself. When you want to use that feature your PDF class has
to extend the class \FPDI.
