Hava a close look at the 'print' command ; the 'into
rectangle' form allows you to print something into a
specific part of the page that will come out of the
printer.

Suppose you have a scrolling group that is 600 pixels
high and 400 pixels wide ; then you could do something
like :
--
set the vScroll of group "Foobar" to 0
print from the topleft of group "Foobar" to the
bottomright of group "Foobar" into 0,0,400,300
set the vScroll of group "Foobar" to 300
print from the topleft of group "Foobar" to the
bottomright of group "Foobar" into 0,300,400,600
--

You may have to fiddle a bit, bit this should be the
general way of doing it.

Hope this helped,
