PDF Flow Pipeline
Process flow visualisation optimised for print. Sequential steps with arrows showing data or process flow.
The PDF Flow Pipeline block renders a sequential process flow optimised for print output. Each step is displayed as a labelled box connected by directional arrows, giving readers a clear left-to-right or top-to-bottom view of how data or activities move through a pipeline.

Layout Behaviour
In left-to-right mode, steps are arranged in a single row with connecting arrows between them. If the number of steps exceeds the available page width, the flow wraps to the next line with a return arrow. Top-to-bottom mode stacks steps vertically, which works well for longer pipelines.
