Kind of an addition to:

https://knowledge.safe.com/content/idea/18817/pdf-page-formatter-parameters-from-attributes.html

Would love to be able to see some extra options for the Page object location based on values in the attribute table. With the idea that you don't need input ports but can use a generic input port that filters the objects that need placing based on basename, feature type or some kind of group (i.e. map, legend, rasters).

Adding a generic input port where you need to define an attributes for the upper left x, left y, height en width of the object. By doing so all object can be placed in the PDF page mathematically instead of drawing boxes by hand and always have check if the aspect ratio is in order.

I concur, that this sort of functionality would be very useful.
