`<page>`

The content of one printed pageIn development

<page> marks the content of one printed page. On screen it is an unformatted container, like a <div>. When the document is exported to PreTeXt for printing, each <page> starts on a new sheet of paper, and the room left for writing answers (an expanded <textInput>) is stretched or shrunk, in proportion to the heights written on the inputs, so that the page fills its sheet.

A <page> does not start a count of its own: a <section> or <problem> inside it is numbered along with the ones beside the <page>. Inside a <problems>, the problems on each page are numbered as items of the list, so a set of problems can be printed one per page by putting each <problem> in a <page> of its own.

A document is printed in pages only when its <page>s are written at its top level, or inside a <problems>, <exercises>, <div> or <cascade> there; the title of such a <problems> is not printed. A <page> inside a <section> prints as its content, with no page break.
