ARRANGING GRAPHIC OBJECTS ON A PAGE WITH RELATIVE POSITION BASED CONTROL

摘要

A user-specified layout (80) of graphic objects (72) is received. A relative layout specification (84) is derived from the user-specified layout (80). The relative layout specification (84) describes relative positions of the graphic objects (72). A final layout (102) of the graphic objects (72) is determined in accordance with the relative layout specification (84). The final layout (102) includes a specification of size dimensions and positions of the graphic objects (72) on a page (82). The final layout (102) of graphic objects (72) is output.
