As far as I know, TeX has a so-called "output routine", that works
each time TeX has eaten enough text to fill a new page. This output
routine controls the layout of the page, and if I am well informed,
the output routine is (like the rest of TeX) very powerfull and
flexiable. Therefore, I think it would be possible to generate a page
layout program based on TeX (like Lyx is based on TeX).
