-<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label abspos</title>
-</head><body>
-<h3>Putting things at fixed positions on the page</h3>
-<p/>TeX&#8217;s model of the world is (broadly speaking) that the author
-writes text, and TeX and its macros decide how it all fits on the
-page. This is not good news for the author who has, from whatever
-source, a requirement that certain things go in exactly the right
-place on the page.
-<p/>There <em>are</em> places on the page, from which things may be hung,
-and two LaTeX packages allow you position things relative to such
-points, thus providing a means of absolute positioning.
-<p/>The <i>textpos</i> package aids the construction of pages from
-&#8220;blobs&#8221;, dotted around over the page (as in a poster); you give it
-the location, and it places your typeset box accordingly.
-<p/>The <i>eso-pic</i> defines a &#8220;shipout picture&#8221; that covers the
-page. The user may add <code>picture</code>-mode commands to this
-picture, which of course can include box placements as well as the
-other rather stilted commands of <code>picture</code>-mode.
-(<i>Eso-pic</i> requires the services of <i>everyshi</i>, which
-must therefore also be available.)
