Sažetak
This paper discusses changes in functions and perceptions of the basic book unit – the page. As common in everyday life as the book itself, the page is easily imaginable, it is forming our cognitive space, getting metaphorical meanings, and serving as organisational principle in architecture of printed books. The transition to digital has certainly started with imitations of the printed page, e.g. with comfortable multiplications of PDFs, with page numbering in word processing software, or with WYSIWYG editors whose advantage was again the possibility of seeing the complete page on the screen. However, with the progress of screen variations, the accent on personalization of text appearance and diverse systems of electronic text deliveries, the page, an intrinsically static organisational unit, is challenged with alternative models of text arrangement. The paper reviews the scope of changes with special emphasis on producers and users of the page, and on the role that the page may perform both in the organisation of the content and the organisation of reading.
