Overview

   This factory is used to prepare features for the PDF2D writer.
   It allows the user to specify the location and size of sections
   on the page, called page objects, that will be filled with features
   that come into the page objects' corresponding input ports.

   The PAGE_OBJECTS clause defines two things. The left column
   of the PAGE_OBJECTS table parameter defines the input ports of the
   transformer, which correspond to the input tags of the factory.
   The right column defines the position and size of the rectangle
   on the PDF that will contain the features from the corresponding
   input tag.  The position is the bottom left of the box in PDF coordinates
   
   The PAGE_NUMBER clause specifies the 1-indexed page number
   that this factory is formatting. The format attribute
   'pdf_page_number' will be set to this value.

   All numeric values specifying size and location should
   be in points.

   Attributes will be carried across from the INPUT features to the respective 
   OUTPUT features.
