Thanks Mike. I had googled CF8 and cfdocument...didn't think to google
iText.

No, you can't do that using CF 8.

I'm pretty sure the mid-line pagebreak issue has been discussed before if
you search the archives of this list and the Adobe forums. Remember that
cfdocument is a feature powered by an old version of iText, which is an
active open-source project that has its own mailing list.

 the relative position on a printed page of whatever I am outputting?

 I am also getting that notorious issue where cfdocument pagebreaks and 
 chops a line of text in half. I'm on CF8.01 so I don't think it's an 
 issue with having out of date software.
