The Google translate is, ehem, well, rudimentary:-) I posted an English translation of the article (omitting some part of the original post). CSS Houdini / CSS Working Group meeting report http://vivliostyle.com/2015/02/sydney/ Since my English is not fluent, please let me know if there are sentences incorrect or unclear. I will try to improve. >>> However, will that API also allow for some sort of a fast search which, I presume, would be necessary (e.g., to answer to the question 'on which page is this image')?

I summarized the idea of "break record" in the article as follows: > If one can save information about positions of (page or column or any fragmentation) breaks after layout, it is possible to resume reading in the middle of the document efficiently, starting layout from that point. Without the break record, doing layout from the beginning of the document is necessary since one does not know page breaking positions. With such information, one can identify the position of a page break nearest to the specified content (e.g. an image) without doing layout from the beginning of the document and answer the page number of the page on which the content is laid out. -- Toru Kawakubo Vivliostyle Inc. http://vivliostyle.com > 2015/02/20 19:14, Ivan Herman <ivan@w3.org> wrote: > > Thank you Kawakubo-san! > > > >> On 20 Feb 2015, at 10:57 , Toru Kawakubo <kwkbtr@vivliostyle.com> wrote: >> >> Hello, >> >> I attended the Houdini F2F. >> >>> However, will that API also allow for some sort of a fast search which, I presume, would be necessary (e.g., to answer to the question 'on which page is this image')?

I would expect that 'Fragment Tree' is the crucial one for us here, returning information on pages, ie, one could find out(?) where the page boundaries are.
