> In order to generate the appearance for multiline text a *basic* plain text block composer needs to be developed. 
> Features
> - box model
> - paragraph separation
> - line breaking
> - horizontal and vertical alignment
> - font setting, line height …
> Conceptually it should also include writing mode likely with the only initial implementation being lr-tb.
> There should be no new dependencies on projects such as ICU which will limit the capabilities but should be acceptable to the needs of form filling.
> To not create the *false* assumption that this is a generic composer it will be sub packaged within the (AcroForms) forms package(s).
