I found only version 0.01 in CPAN...

I've no idea. I have just one interest in that package : it is used by
sgf2dg. I do not use the module myself.
If you know that libpdf-report-perl is better, tell me : I will add a
pointer to this package in the description of mine.

The description I use for libpdf-create-perl is the one found in the
upstream package. So I am not able to make any comment about it.

  Best regards,
    Vincent
