En bref

Deux pages en vis-à-vis d’un manuel d’histoire faites comme une seule : un bandeau de couleur traverse le milieu du livre, et six fiches illustrées se partagent la largeur, et l’histoire la plus longue reçoit la fiche la plus large.

Ce que vous allez composer

Les pages 48 et 49 d’un manuel d’histoire de collège : La route du papier, mille ans de métier, de l’atelier de Cai Lun à la meule de Keller. La page de gauche s’ouvre sur le titre et deux paragraphes, celle de droite sur un encadré qui raconte comment on fabriquait une feuille à la main. Au milieu court la frise : un bandeau indigo pour l’Asie, un bandeau terre cuite pour l’Europe, qui part de la page de gauche et passe le dos. Dessous, six fiches avec leur dessin, suspendues au bandeau par un point et un trait. Les fiches se partagent la largeur : celle de 1844, dont l’histoire est la plus longue, prend de la largeur à ses deux voisines (1 mm en espagnol, 7 mm en japonais), et son point se déplace avec elle. Tous les mots sont dans le Markdown, en espagnol, en anglais et en japonais ; cette page montre l’édition anglaise.

Cette recette répond à

  • Comment mettre en page une frise chronologique sur une double page, avec un bandeau qui passe le dos et des fiches sur les deux pages ?
  • Comment faire qu’une rangée d’encadrés se partage la largeur et que celui au texte le plus long s’élargisse ?

Préparation

#1 · Une feuille pour deux pages

script.js · lignes 57–85dans le code complet
const pageTemplates = [{
  id: 'timeline',
  spread: true, // two facing pages laid as one sheet; it opens on a verso
  gutter: mm(10), // the band round the spine that frames keep off
  grid: { columns: 2, rows: ROWS, columnGap: mm(2 * PAGE.inner), rowGap: mm(ROW_GAP) },
  frames: [
    { name: 'title', takes: 'h1' },
    { name: 'lead', flow: true, fit: { minScale: 0.8 } },
    { name: 'box', style: 'box', grid: { col: 2, row: 1, rows: 4 }, height: 'fill',
      padding: { right: mm(66) }, fit: { minScale: 0.85 } },
    { name: 'box-picture', layer: 2, width: mm(56), placement: at('#box', 'top-right', -5, 10) },
    { name: 'band-1', style: 'band-asia', grid: { col: 1, row: 5 }, height: mm(BAND) },
    { name: 'band-2', style: 'band-europe', crossGutter: true, width: 'fill', height: mm(BAND),
      padding: { left: mm(2 * PAGE.inner + 4) }, // the colour crosses the fold, the words do not
      placement: at('#band-1', 'right-of') },
    ...cards.map(card),
    { name: 'colophon', style: 'colophon', optional: true, width: mm(170),
      placement: at('page', 'bottom-right', -PAGE.outer, -7) },
  ],
  groups: [
    { name: 'opening', kind: 'stack', grid: { col: 1, row: 1, rows: 4 }, gap: mm(4),
      frames: ['title', 'lead'] },
    // A card whose text runs past its drawn height takes width from its neighbours first;
    // only when they have none to give does the row grow taller.
    { name: 'asia', kind: 'row', gap: mm(5), frames: ['c1', 'c2', 'c3'] },
    { name: 'europe', kind: 'row', gap: mm(5), frames: ['c4', 'c5', 'c6'] },
  ],
  decoration: { elements: [ground(), ...cards.flatMap(marks)] },
}];

spread: true fait du modèle une seule feuille large comme les deux pages, et la section de la page le dit aussi avec spread. Une double page commence sur une page paire : la composition reçoit donc continuation: { pageIndexOffset: 1, pageNumbering: { startAt: 48 } }. La page 1 de cet extrait est la page 48 du livre, une page de gauche, et aucune page blanche ne la précède. La grille a une colonne par page, séparées par deux fois la marge intérieure, si bien que seul le bandeau approche du pli. Le second bandeau porte crossGutter et un retrait gauche de 36 mm : sa couleur part de la fin du premier et passe le dos, ses mots commencent sur la page de droite, là où la mise en page les lit.

#2 · Des fiches qui se partagent la largeur

script.js · lignes 48–53dans le code complet
const cards = ['c1', 'c2', 'c3', 'c4', 'c5', 'c6'];
const card = (name, i) => ({ name, style: i < 3 ? 'card-asia' : 'card-europe',
  width: mm((HALF - 10) / 3), minWidth: mm(40), minHeight: mm(CARD),
  shrink: 1, // a card gives width to a neighbour whose text runs past the row
  ...(i % 3 === 0 && { placement: at('container', 'top-left', i ? HALF + 2 * PAGE.inner : 0,
    CARD_TOP) }) }); // where each row starts

Chaque rangée de trois fiches est un groupe row, et chaque fiche a un minHeight, la hauteur à laquelle elle est dessinée, et au-delà une hauteur auto. Quand le texte d’une fiche dépasse la hauteur de la rangée, elle prend aux voisines qui ont shrink le nombre de millimètres entiers qu’il lui faut, et chaque voisine garde la largeur où son propre texte tient encore. C’est seulement quand elles n’ont plus rien à donner que la rangée grandit vers le bas. Dans l’édition espagnole, la fiche de 1844 prend 1 mm à celle de 1282 ; dans la japonaise, elle en prend 7, 3 à celle de 1150 et 4 à celle de 1282 ; avec tous les textes plus longs de 30 %, le test du banc d’essai, l’espagnole en prend 15, et l’encadré et le chapeau passent leur texte à 92,5 % et 85 %.

#3 · Des points qui suivent les fiches

script.js · lignes 89–100dans le code complet
function marks(name, i) {
  const ink = col(i < 3 ? 'asia' : 'europe');
  return [
    { kind: 'rule', id: `${name}-tick`, direction: 'vertical', thickness: pt(1), color: ink,
      placement: { ...at(`#${name}`, 'top', 0, -DROP), size: { height: mm(DROP) } } },
    { kind: 'box', id: `${name}-dot`,
      placement: { ...at(`#${name}`, 'top', 0, -DROP + 0.6), size: { width: mm(4.4),
        height: mm(4.4) } },
      style: { backgroundColor: col('paper'), borderColor: ink, borderWidth: pt(1.6),
        borderRadius: mm(2.2) } },
  ];
}

Les points et les traits sont le décor (decoration) du modèle, ancrés à #c1 … #c6 par leur bord supérieur (top) et remontés de la distance qui les sépare du bandeau. Le décor est placé après les blocs : quand une fiche se déplace ou s’élargit, son point reste au-dessus de son centre. Le fond crème est lui aussi du décor, une boîte ancrée au pied du fond perdu dont la hauteur monte jusqu’au pied de #band-1 (size: { height: { to: '#band-1', edge: 'bottom' } }) : elle suit le bandeau.

#4 · Des dessins à leur taille d’impression

  v1282: t({ es: 'Un molino de Fabriano con su rueda hidráulica y sus mazos; un papelero mira '
      + 'una filigrana al trasluz.',
    en: 'A Fabriano mill with its water wheel and hammers; a papermaker holds a watermark up '
      + 'to the light.',
    ja: '水車と木づちのあるファブリアーノの製紙場。職人が紙を光にかざして透かしを見ている。' }),
  v1844: t({ es: 'Un artesano aprieta un tronco de abeto contra una muela que gira; debajo se '
      + 'amontonan las fibras.',
    en: 'A craftsman presses a spruce log against a turning grindstone; the fibres pile up '
      + 'below.',
    ja: '職人がトウヒの丸太を回る砥石に押し当て、その下に木の繊維が積もっていく。' }),
  forma: t({ es: 'Dos manos sacan de la tina el molde con una capa fina de fibras.',
    en: 'Two hands lift the mould from the vat with a thin layer of fibres on it.',
    ja: '両手ですき枠を引き上げる。網の上に繊維の薄い層ができている。' }),
};
const SIZE = { forma: [800, 800, 363] }; // pixels and ppi: 56 mm wide; the cards' are 46 mm
const resources = await Promise.all(Object.entries(ART).map(async ([id, altText]) => {
  const px = SIZE[id] ?? [1000, 667, 550];
  const fileId = `${id}-${px[0]}.jpg`;
  await loadImage(fileId, asset(fileId));
  return { id, typeId: 'picture', kind: 'bitmap', caption: '', altText, createdAt: 0,
    updatedAt: 0,
    bitmap: { fileId, format: 'jpeg', width: px[0], height: px[1], resolution: px[2] } };
}));

Les vignettes font 1 000 px à 550 ppp, soit 46 mm sur la page, et une image n’est jamais agrandie : une fiche qui s’élargit garde son dessin et laisse la place à son texte. Une fiche plus étroite que 53 mm (le dessin plus 3,5 mm de marge de chaque côté) réduit son dessin, ce que montre le test du banc d’essai dans l’édition japonaise : les dessins de 1150 et 1282 à 85 %.

It took more than a thousand years to travel from there to the mills of Europe. Every people who learnt it changed the recipe to suit what they had to hand: mulberry bark in China, kozo in Japan, flax and rags in Samarkand and al-Andalus, and wood in the nineteenth century. :::frame{slot="box" label="How a sheet was made"} 1. The fibres are chopped and left to soak until they break down into a pulp. 2. The mould, a fine screen on a wooden frame, is dipped into the vat and lifted out full of pulp. 3. The mould is shaken: the water drains away and the fibres lock together in an even layer. 4. The sheet is pressed between felts and hung up to dry. The wires of the mould leave their print in the sheet: they are the fine lines you see when you hold paper up to the light. ::: ::resource{id="forma" slot="box-picture"} :::frame{slot="band-1"} In Asia, from the 2nd to the 8th century ::: :::frame{slot="band-2"} Around the Mediterranean and in Europe, from the 12th to the 19th century ::: :::frame{slot="c1" label="105"} ::resource{id="v105"} **China.** Cai Lun, an official at the Han court, presents the emperor with paper made from mulberry bark, scraps of hemp, rags and old fishing nets. It costs less than silk and weighs far less than strips of bamboo. Archaeologists have found Chinese paper two centuries older, but Cai Lun's is the one copied across the empire. ::: :::frame{slot="c2" label="610"} ::resource{id="v610"} **Japan.** According to the chronicle *Nihon shoki*, the monk Damjing, from the Korean kingdom of Goguryeo, teaches the court how to make paper and ink. Japanese papermakers turn the bark of the kozo shrub into *washi*, thin and very strong. The Shōsōin in Nara still keeps household registers written on paper in 702. ::: :::frame{slot="c3" label="751"} ::resource{id="v751"} **Samarkand.** A tradition says that after the Battle of Talas, Chinese prisoners taught the craft in this Silk Road city. Samarkand's papermakers use flax and cotton rags. By about 800, Baghdad has workshops of its own, and paper replaces parchment in the caliph's archives. ::: :::frame{slot="c4" label="1150"} ::resource{id="v1150"} **Xàtiva.** The geographer al-Idrisi writes that this town of al-Andalus makes a paper with no equal anywhere in the world, sold to East and West. When James I takes the town in 1244, the workshops carry on. ::: :::frame{slot="c5" label="1282"} ::resource{id="v1282"} **Fabriano.** The mills of this Italian town use the river to drive hammers that beat rags to pulp. They size their sheets with gelatine, which stops the ink from spreading, and mark them with a watermark, a design that only shows against the light. By the 14th century, Italian paper is sold across half of Europe. ::: :::frame{slot="c6" label="1844"} ::resource{id="v1844"} **Saxony.** After printing come the newspapers, and there are no longer rags enough for so much paper. In 1798, Louis-Nicolas Robert had built a machine in France that made one continuous sheet, with no mould. In 1844 the weaver Friedrich Gottlob Keller presses spruce logs against a grindstone and gets wood pulp. From then on paper is cheap and plentiful, and a daily paper costs no more than a loaf of bread. ::: :::frame{slot="colophon"} Set in Literata and Archivo (SIL OFL) · Original text (CC BY 4.0) · Illustrations generated with diffusion models ::: ::::

Variantes

#Garder des fiches de même largeur

Avec shrink: 0, aucune fiche ne cède de largeur : la rangée grandit vers le bas, les trois fiches ensemble, et son pied descend dans la page.

-  shrink: 1, // a card gives width to a neighbour whose text runs past the row
+  shrink: 0,

Erreurs fréquentes

  • Une fiche à height fixe ne prend pas part au partage de la largeur, puisqu’elle ne dépasse jamais la rangée : donnez aux fiches un minHeight, comme ici, et laissez la hauteur en auto.
  • Une taille qui va jusqu’au bord d’une autre boîte se compte à partir du point d’ancrage de l’élément : le fond est ancré au pied du fond perdu et monte jusqu’à #band-1. Un bord situé derrière l’ancre donne une hauteur de 0.
