/**
* Base class that provides the content of a document to be printed.
*
* <h3>Lifecycle</h3>
* <p>
* <ul>
* <li>
* Initially, you will receive a call to {@link #onStart()}. This callback
* can be used to allocate resources.
* </li>
* <li>
* Next, you will get one or more calls to {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes,
* PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} to
* inform you that the print attributes (page size, density, etc) changed
* giving you an opportunity to layout the content to match the new constraints.
* </li>
* <li>
* After every call to {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes, PrintAttributes,
* CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)}, you <strong>may</strong> get
* a call to {@link #onWrite(PageRange[], ParcelFileDescriptor, CancellationSignal,
* WriteResultCallback)} asking you to write a PDF file with the content for
* specific pages.
* </li>
* <li>
* Finally, you will receive a call to {@link #onFinish()}. You can use this
* callback to release resources allocated in {@link #onStart()}.
* </li>
* </ul>
* <p>
* The {@link #onStart()} callback is always the first call you will receive and
* is useful for doing one time setup or resource allocation before printing. You
* will not receive a subsequent call here.
* </p>
* <p>
* The {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes, PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal,
* LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} callback requires that you layout the content
* based on the current {@link PrintAttributes}. The execution of this method is
* not considered completed until you invoke one of the methods on the passed in
* callback instance. Hence, you will not receive a subsequent call to any other
* method of this class until the execution of this method is complete by invoking
* one of the callback methods.
* </p>
* <p>
* The {@link #onWrite(PageRange[], ParcelFileDescriptor, CancellationSignal,
* WriteResultCallback)} requires that you render and write the content of some
* pages to the provided destination. The execution of this method is not
* considered complete until you invoke one of the methods on the passed in
* callback instance. Hence, you will not receive a subsequent call to any other
* method of this class until the execution of this method is complete by invoking
* one of the callback methods. You will never receive a sequence of one or more
* calls to this method without a previous call to {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes,
* PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)}.
* </p>
* <p>
* The {@link #onFinish()} callback is always the last call you will receive and
* is useful for doing one time cleanup or resource deallocation after printing.
* You will not receive a subsequent call here.
* </p>
* </p>
* <h3>Implementation</h3>
* <p>
* The APIs defined in this class are designed to enable doing part or all
* of the work on an arbitrary thread. For example, if the printed content
* does not depend on the UI state, i.e. on what is shown on the screen, then
* you can offload the entire work on a dedicated thread, thus making your
* application interactive while the print work is being performed. Note that
* while your activity is covered by the system print UI and a user cannot
* interact with it, doing the printing work on the main application thread
* may affect the performance of your other application components as they
* are also executed on that thread.
* </p>
* <p>
* You can also do work on different threads, for example if you print UI
* content, you can handle {@link #onStart()} and {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes,
* PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} on
* the UI thread (assuming onStart initializes resources needed for layout).
* This will ensure that the UI does not change while you are laying out the
* printed content. Then you can handle {@link #onWrite(PageRange[], ParcelFileDescriptor,
* CancellationSignal, WriteResultCallback)} and {@link #onFinish()} on another
* thread. This will ensure that the main thread is busy for a minimal amount of
* time. Also this assumes that you will generate the printed content in
* {@link #onLayout(PrintAttributes, PrintAttributes, CancellationSignal,
* LayoutResultCallback, Bundle)} which is not mandatory. If you use multiple
* threads, you are responsible for proper synchronization.
* </p>

* <p>
* After you are done laying out, you <strong>must</strong> invoke: {@link
* LayoutResultCallback#onLayoutFinished(PrintDocumentInfo, boolean)} with
* the last argument <code>true</code> or <code>false</code> depending on
* whether the layout changed the content or not, respectively; or {@link
* LayoutResultCallback#onLayoutFailed(CharSequence)}, if an error occurred;
* or {@link LayoutResultCallback#onLayoutCancelled()} if layout was
* cancelled in a response to a cancellation request via the passed in
* {@link CancellationSignal}. Note that you <strong>must</strong> call one of
* the methods of the given callback for this method to be considered complete
* which is you will not receive any calls to this adapter until the current
* layout operation is complete by invoking a method on the callback instance.
* The callback methods can be invoked from an arbitrary thread.
* </p>
* <p>
* One of the arguments passed to this method is a {@link CancellationSignal}
* which is used to propagate requests from the system to your application for
* canceling the current layout operation. For example, a cancellation may be
* requested if the user changes a print option that may affect layout while
* you are performing a layout operation. In such a case the system will make
* an attempt to cancel the current layout as another one will have to be performed.
* Typically, you should register a cancellation callback in the cancellation
* signal. The cancellation callback <strong>will not</strong> be made on the
* main thread and can be registered as follows:
* </p>
* <pre>
* cancellationSignal.setOnCancelListener(new OnCancelListener() {
* &#064;Override
* public void onCancel() {
* // Cancel layout
* }
* });
* </pre>
* <p>
* <strong>Note:</strong> If the content is large and a layout will be
* performed, it is a good practice to schedule the work on a dedicated
* thread and register an observer in the provided {@link
* CancellationSignal} upon invocation of which you should stop the
* layout.
