I agree completely that AI MUST gain multiple *size-independent* pages within the practical limits of its pasteboard (which is pretty much the same size as FH's.) However, what version of FH are you referring to? FH9 added a Page Tool which makes it pretty much unnecessary to use the Document Inspector to manage page positioning in that tiny proxy window. FH 10 added a Print Area tool on top of that for added flexibility. For a program based on a one large, but fixed-size pasteboard metaphor, where each page can be a different size, this setup is more versatile than the page handling of XPress or InD, and is more appropriate for the many different uses to which an illustration program is put. AI already has a Page Tool, but of course all it does is drag the page tiling around the one document page. But the concept is there. Unless there is (yet another) patent at issue, I see no reason why AI couldn't work like FH in this regard (or better). JET
