# # Frame - Text Flow
#
# This example shows how [HexaPDF::Layout::Frame] and [HexaPDF::Layout::TextBox]
# can be used to flow text around objects.
#
# Three boxes are placed repeatedly onto the frame until it is filled: two
# floating boxes (one left, one right) and a text box. The text box is styled to
# flow its content around the other two boxes.
#
# Usage:
# : `ruby frame_text_flow.rb`
#
