How you image the areas on paper is up to you. I was thinking the same thing, but as you indicate, it depends on the media. For a typical PostScript printer, say, it shouldn't make a difference, but if you are looking at the formatted output in a viewer, say, then (depending on the viewer perhaps?) there might be a difference in writing directions. The question is, does DSSSL specify anything about the relationship between the orientations of glyphs on contiguous but different page sequences with different (or even identical?) page dimensions? -- FC DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
