    • 2022 January 26, Barry Doe, “Fabrik offers an end to hard times”, in RAIL, number 949, page 38:
      Each table is now paginated. That makes it straightforward if you wish to print a few pages of a long table by entering the page numbers required into the printer file.

      Word-processing applications are designed to automatically paginate a continuous flow of text, and this require additional capabilities such as page breaks and image-positioning for some control over page layout. However, this makes tasks such as laying out a double- page magazine spread very difficult.
