The PrintOMatic Xtra uses a "frames" metaphor for creating areas on the page where text or graphics can be flowed. The basic procedure is to create one or more "linked" frames on a page of a document, then append items to the newly created frames. The following commands are used to create frames and append their contents.
newFrame
creates a new frame on the current page
append
appends contents to the current frame
appendFile
appends the contents of a text or graphic file to the current frame
getInsertionPoint
gets the location of the insertion point within the current frame
pageBreak
inserts a page break in the text flow
