Conceptual Problems

These still need to be solved and agreed on before starting the implementation.

LTR vs RTL Text

  • Arabic and other RTL languages
  • Japanese: both LTR/Top-to-Bottom and Top-To-Bottom/RTL within the same document

Multiple Page Sizes

  • is there any use case for multiple page sizes within the same document?

Horizontal Ruler

  • one global horizontal ruler vs multiple rulers

Notes

  • where do we position notes:
    • always right vs left & right depending on even/odd page
