I'd like to make a simple text writing tool but i want to display each vertual page seperated from each other like how it appears in ms word, rather than a continuous blank writing area.
I can't think how to do this.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Dear rev,
You will have to simulate the pages one way or another. Perhaps with pictures of dividers between the text or perhaps by using fields with a size equal to paper size. You also need to make the text flow from one section/field into another section/field, taking into account all formatting issues that affect the textHeight.
This sounds like an advanced programming task. If you make a start with it, let us know where you get stuck.
Kind regards,
Mark
