/** @short Represents a page in a document, contains the page's graphical
    representation and resolution-dependent information.

    This abstract class represents a page in a document. Its
    implementations contain graphical representations of document pages,
    and resolution-dependent information. The most important members are

    - the page number

    - a vector that contains hyperlinks

    - a vector for source hyperlinks; this vector is currently used by
      KDVI only, and is therefore not documented much here.

    - a vector that contains the document text together with
    information about the position of the text on the page. This
    information is used in kviewshell e.g. for selecting text with the
    mouse or for the "export as text..." functionality

    - the implementations of the documentPage will also contain a
    TQPaintDevice, onto which the graphical representation of the page
    is rendered. This could for instance be a TQPixmap, if the page is
    to be displayed on a computer screen, or a TQPrinter for printing.

    The kviewshell program uses the documentPage class in the
    following manner: first, it is constructed, the page number is
    invalid. The page number is then set to a reasonable value using
    the setPageNumber() method. After this, the
    documentRenderer.drawPage() method of an implementation of the
    documentRenderer is used to render a graphical representation into
    the TQPaintDevice at a given resolution, and to fill the
    (source-)hyperlink and text vectors, which are also
    resolution-dependent. After the data has been used, the
    documentPage is clear()ed, perhaps a new page number set, and
    documentRenderer.drawPage() is used again.

  This method is used for instance by the documentRenderer.drawPage()
  method to draw on the page. It returns a pointer to a TQPainter (in
  most implementation a painter on either a TQPixmap, or a
  TQPrinter). The pointer returned points to an active TQPainter and is
  valid as long as *this RenderedDocumentPage exists. The pointer
  returned must not be deleted nor should TQPainter::end() be
  called. Instead, the method returnPainter() must be called as soon
  as drawing is finished.

  In short, to draw on a renderedDocumentPage, you do the following:
  @code
  RenderedDocumentPage rdp;

  TQPainter *paint = rdp.getPainter()
  if (paint != 0) {
  
    <Do some painting, don't call paint->end() >
  
    rdp.returnPainter(paint);
  }
  @endcode

  @warning Before the pointer has been returned by the returnPainter()
  method, all subsequent calls to getPainter() will return undefined
  results. Do not delete a renderedDocumentPage when you still hold a
  pointer. Call returnPainter() first.

  @returns A pointer to a TQPainter (in most implementation a painter
  on either a TQPixmap, or a TQPrinter), or NULL, if painting is not
  possible. The TQPainter object is owned by the RenderedDocumentPage.
