> (make simple-page-sequence > (make paragraph > (literal "First page."))) > (make simple-page-sequence can i be entirely clear in my mind about this - does simple-page-sequence have page breaks at start and end? ie does this: (make sequence (literal "abc")) (make simple-page-sequence (make paragraph (literal "First page."))) (make sequence (literal "xyx")) result in 3 pages of output? I have been tying myself in knots with TeX trying to work out when to start a new page, and when to activate TeX's page setup. and I don't quite see why (make simple-page-sequence page-width: 297mm page-height: 211mm (make paragraph (literal "Second page."))) should *rotate* the page, as opposed to requesting a new paper size at that point. Are you saying, James, that this is a feature of the RTF backend, or an interpretation of the standard? it does make sense, in eg, PDF for successive pages to have different sizes, and I am not sure how to guess when to stick with the same page size, but rotate the content, as opposed to choosing a new paper size. would the RTF backend also rotate if you did: (make simple-page-sequence page-width: 297mm page-height: 200mm (make paragraph (literal "Second page."))) ?
