THE BLOCKS
Every piece of the page
Each block is one region of a page, with the text the scanner read from it and the clipping it came from. A block may hold a whole story, part of one, several, or an advertisement. It comes straight from the page layout, at no cost and with nothing inferred. Stitching blocks into complete articles is the next step.
