+This is the first page of the document. In this document we take
+advantage only of the simplest features of the \texttt{rotpages.sty}
+package, i.e.\@ we only use the basic \verb|\rotboxpages| and
+\verb|\endrotboxpages| commands.
+
+
+The first pages are typeset normally. To fill them a little, we include
+the first part of \emph{Pinocchio} by Carlo Collodi.

+ \textbf{CHAPTER 1}
+
+ \emph{How it happened that Mastro Cherry, carpenter,
+ found a piece of wood that wept and laughed like a child}
+ \medskip
+
+ Centuries ago there lived ---
+
+ "A king!" my little readers will say immediately.
+
+ No, children, you are mistaken. Once upon a time
+ there was a piece of wood. It was not an expensive piece
+ of wood. Far from it. Just a common block of firewood,
+ one of those thick, solid logs that are put on the fire in
+ winter to make cold rooms cozy and warm.
+
+ I do not know how this really happened, yet the fact
+ remains that one fine day this piece of wood found itself
+ in the shop of an old carpenter. His real name was
+ Mastro Antonio, but everyone called him Mastro Cherry,
+ for the tip of his nose was so round and red and shiny
+ that it looked like a ripe cherry.
+
+ As soon as he saw that piece of wood, Mastro Cherry
+ was filled with joy. Rubbing his hands together happily,
+ he mumbled half to himself:
+
+ "This has come in the nick of time. I shall use it to
+ make the leg of a table."
+
+ He grasped the hatchet quickly to peel off the bark and
+ shape the wood. But as he was about to give it the first
+ blow, he stood still with arm uplifted, for he had heard a
+ wee, little voice say in a beseeching tone: "Please be careful!
+ Do not hit me so hard!"
+
+ What a look of surprise shone on Mastro Cherry's
+ face! His funny face became still funnier.
+
+ He turned frightened eyes about the room to find out
+ where that wee, little voice had come from and he saw
+ no one! He looked under the bench--no one! He peeped
+ inside the closet--no one! He searched among the shavings--
+ no one! He opened the door to look up and down
+ the street--and still no one!
+
+ "Oh, I see!" he then said, laughing and scratching his Wig.
+ "It can easily be seen that I only thought I heard the tiny
+ voice say the words! Well, well--to work once more."
+
+ He struck a most solemn blow upon the piece of wood.
+
+ "Oh, oh! You hurt!" cried the same far-away little voice.
+
+ Mastro Cherry grew dumb, his eyes popped out of his
+ head, his mouth opened wide, and his tongue hung down
+ on his chin.
+
+ As soon as he regained the use of his senses, he said,
+ trembling and stuttering from fright:
+
+ "Where did that voice come from, when there is no
+ one around? Might it be that this piece of wood has
+ learned to weep and cry like a child? I can hardly
+ believe it. Here it is--a piece of common firewood, good
+ only to burn in the stove, the same as any other. Yet--
+ might someone be hidden in it? If so, the worse for him.
+ I'll fix him!"
+
+ With these words, he grabbed the log with both hands
+ and started to knock it about unmercifully. He threw it
+ to the floor, against the walls of the room, and even up
+ to the ceiling.
+
+ He listened for the tiny voice to moan and cry.
+ He waited two minutes--nothing; five minutes--nothing;
+ ten minutes--nothing.
+
+ "Oh, I see," he said, trying bravely to laugh and
+ ruffling up his wig with his hand. "It can easily be seen
+ I only imagined I heard the tiny voice! Well, well--to
+ work once more!"
+
+ The poor fellow was scared half to death, so he tried
+ to sing a gay song in order to gain courage.
+
+ He set aside the hatchet and picked up the plane to
+ make the wood smooth and even, but as he drew it to
+ and fro, he heard the same tiny voice. This time it giggled
+ as it spoke:
+
+ "Stop it! Oh, stop it! Ha, ha, ha! You tickle my stomach."
+
+ This time poor Mastro Cherry fell as if shot. When
+ he opened his eyes, he found himself sitting on the floor.
+
+ His face had changed; fright had turned even the tip of
+ his nose from red to deepest purple.

+Note that the next pages are upside down.
+
+\rotboxpages%
+Here come the rotated pages. Note that while formatting the
+document, this page is \emph{deferred}, until all the block of rotated
+pages is processed. In this way, this page is printed as the last one
+of the block. However, if the printed work is read upside down, this
+page correctly appears as the first of the block.
+
+Obviously, also this page contains the continuation of the novel:

+ \textbf{CHAPTER 2}
+
+ \emph{Mastro Cherry gives the piece of wood to his friend Geppetto,
+ who takes it to make himself a Marionette that will dance,
+ fence, and turn somersaults}
+ \medskip
+
+ In that very instant, a loud knock sounded on the door.
+ "Come in," said the carpenter, not having an atom of
+ strength left with which to stand up.
+
+ At the words, the door opened and a dapper little old man came in.
+ His name was Geppetto, but to the boys of the neighborhood he was
+ Polendina\footnote{Corneal mush}, on account of the wig he always
+ wore which was just the color of yellow corn.
+

+
+\bigbreak
+
+Here we make a small break in the story. Please, take a second to
+observe how the page content is rotated, while the page headers and
+footers, comprising the page number, are printed with the standard
+orientation. Take also a quick look at the footnote and observe that
+it is in the right place.
+
+Note also that in order to introduce a frame, the rotated pages are
+slightly smaller (i.e.\@ they contain a little less text than the
+normal ones.)
+
+After this informative bit, it is time for some more Pinocchio:
+
+\bigskip
+{\slshape%
+ Geppetto had a very bad temper. Woe to the one who
+ called him Polendina! He became as wild as a beast and
+ no one could soothe him.
+
+ "Good day, Mastro Antonio," said Geppetto. "What
+ are you doing on the floor?"
+
+ "I am teaching the ants their A B C's."
+
+ "Good luck to you!"
+
+ "What brought you here, friend Geppetto?"
+
+ "My legs. And it may flatter you to know, Mastro
+ Antonio, that I have come to you to beg for a favor."
+
+ "Here I am, at your service," answered the carpenter,
+ raising himself on to his knees.
+
+ "This morning a fine idea came to me."
+
+ "Let's hear it."
+
+ "I thought of making myself a beautiful wooden
+ Marionette. It must be wonderful, one that will be able to
+ dance, fence, and turn somersaults. With it I intend to go
+ around the world, to earn my crust of bread and cup of
+ wine. What do you think of it?"
+
+ "Bravo, Polendina!" cried the same tiny voice which
+ came from no one knew where.
+
+ On hearing himself called Polendina, Mastro Geppetto
+ turned the color of a red pepper and, facing the carpenter,
+ said to him angrily:
+
+ "Why do you insult me?"
+
+ "Who is insulting you?"
+
+ "You called me Polendina."
+
+ "I did not."
+
+ "I suppose you think \_I\_ did! Yet I KNOW it was you."
+
+ "No!"
+
+ "Yes!"
+
+ "No!"
+
+ "Yes!"
+
+ And growing angrier each moment, they went from
+ words to blows, and finally began to scratch and bite and
+ slap each other.
+
+ When the fight was over, Mastro Antonio had Geppetto's
+ yellow wig in his hands and Geppetto found the carpenter's
+ curly wig in his mouth.
+
+ "Give me back my wig!" shouted Mastro Antonio in a surly voice.
+
+ "You return mine and we'll be friends."
+
+ The two little old men, each with his own wig back on
+ his own head, shook hands and swore to be good friends
+ for the rest of their lives.
+
+ "Well then, Mastro Geppetto," said the carpenter, to
+ show he bore him no ill will, "what is it you want?"
+
+ "I want a piece of wood to make a Marionette. Will you give it to
+ me?"
+
+ Mastro Antonio, very glad indeed, went immediately
+ to his bench to get the piece of wood which had frightened
+ him so much. But as he was about to give it to his friend,
+ with a violent jerk it slipped out of his hands and hit
+ against poor Geppetto's thin legs.
+
+ "Ah! Is this the gentle way, Mastro Antonio, in which
+ you make your gifts? You have made me almost lame!"
+
+ "I swear to you I did not do it!"
+
+ "It was \_I\_, of course!"
+
+ "It's the fault of this piece of wood."
+
+ "You're right; but remember you were the one to throw it at my legs."
+
+ "I did not throw it!"
+
+ "Liar!"
+
+ "Geppetto, do not insult me or I shall call you Polendina."
+
+ "Idiot."
+
+ "Polendina!"
+
+ "Donkey!"
+
+ "Polendina!"
+
+ "Ugly monkey!"
+
+ "Polendina!"
+
+ On hearing himself called Polendina for the third time,
+ Geppetto lost his head with rage and threw himself upon
+ the carpenter. Then and there they gave each other a
+ sound thrashing.
+
+ After this fight, Mastro Antonio had two more scratches
+ on his nose, and Geppetto had two buttons missing from
+ his coat. Thus having settled their accounts, they shook
+ hands and swore to be good friends for the rest of their lives.
+
+ Then Geppetto took the fine piece of wood,
+ thanked Mastro Antonio, and limped away toward home.
