Understanding the CorelDRAW object model : Working with pages


Working with pages

Each page, or Page object, is a member of the Document.Pages collection for the document in which it appears. The pages in a Document.Pages collection appear in the order in which they appear in that document — for example, the fifth page in the active document is ActiveDocument.Pages.Item(5). If pages are added, reordered, or deleted, the affected Pages collection is immediately updated to reflect the new page order of that document.

CorelDRAW provides a number of properties, methods, and events for working with pages, the most useful of which are listed in the following table.
