Hi All,

I've been trying to get LaTeX to position some text at an absolute
position, but I just cant seem to get it there!

I need to be able to put a section of text in a specific location
so that it shows through a 'window' in the cover.

The window is 10.5cm by 5.3cm positioned 15.5cm down the page and
5.5cm right of the left hand edge of the page.

Any suggestions?
