Recently, I put together some pages which looked roughly like this:
+--------------------------------+
| | | |
| | | |
| <text> | <text> | <text> |
|--------------------------------|
| | | |
| | | |
| <text> | <text> | <text> |
|--------------------------------|
| | | |
| | | |
| <text> | <text> | <text> |
+--------------------------------+
That is, the page was divided into nine rectangles (with some margins
on all sides and a little space between the rectangles). Each of the
rectangles contained some text - all the texts were different and
unconnected, though each used similar tab positions (eg line centered
within rectangle). There were 11 such pages.
What software/hardware would you have used to do this project and why?
