Questions tagged [flowfram]

{flowfram} is a package that allows the user to construct frames in a document, such that the document text flows from one frame to the next in the order that the frames were defined.

It is used to cre­ate frames in a doc­u­ment such that the con­tents of the doc­u­ment en­vi­ron­ment flow from one frame to the next in the or­der in which they were de­fined. This is use­ful for cre­at­ing posters or mag­a­zines, in­deed any form of doc­u­ment that does not con­form to the stan­dard one or two col­umn lay­out.
