If the generated document follows a book/article structure, the p:chapter and p:section tags can be used to provide the necessary structure. Sections can only be used inside of chapters, but they may be nested arbitrarily deep. Most PDF viewers provide easy navigation between chapters and sections in a document.

<p:document xmlns:p="http://jboss.com/products/seam/pdf"
            title="Hello">

   <p:chapter number="1">
      <p:title><p:paragraph>Hello</p:paragraph></p:title>
      <p:paragraph>Hello #{user.name}!</p:paragraph>
   </p:chapter>

   <p:chapter number="2">
      <p:title><p:paragraph>Goodbye</p:paragraph></p:title>
      <p:paragraph>Goodbye #{user.name}.</p:paragraph>
   </p:chapter>
