A flexible templating class.
Allows to apply one or several template definitions to any page of a document in any combination.
Arguments: pdf (fpdf.FPDF() instance): All content will be added to this object.
elements (list of dicts): A template definition in a list of dicts. If you omit this, then you need to call either load_elements() or parse_csv() before doing anything else.
