/* BigView.m
 * Purpose: Demonstrates custom pagination.
 * a BigView is a "matrix" of 3x4 rectangles, each of which is 8" x 10"
 * A bigView therefore has very logical page breaks, although the Appkit by
 * default won't break up the bigView on those boundaries.  This class demonstrates
 * how to do this.  This class also demonstrates somewhat optimized scrolling by only
 * drawing affected pages (because a page is the smallest divisible unit in this class.)
 *
 * You may freely copy, distribute, and reuse the code in this example.
 * NeXT disclaims any warranty of any kind, expressed or  implied, as to its
 * fitness for any particular use.

// There are at least 3 good reasons to override this method:
// 1) The printing rect does not appear where you desire on the paper

// 2) The rect in aRect is not the one that you want placed, due to
//		scaling by your own pagination algorithm (which is applied _after_
//		this method gets invoked), or you will change
//		the size with adjustPageHeight and andjustPageWidth.  I override
//		this method for reason #2
// 3) The kit version of this method will not horizontally center
// 		a rect if the View has more than 1 column, and it will not
// 		vertically center a rect if the View has more than 1 row.
//		If you need this, it is trivial to rewrite this method to
//		center the rect within the paperRect.
