Although this function is primarily used in set rules to affect page\nproperties, it can also be used to explicitly render its argument onto\na set of pages of its own.

\n

Pages can be set to use auto as their width or height. In this case, the\npages will grow to fit their content on the respective axis.

\n

The Guide for Page Setup explains how to use\nthis and related functions to set up a document with many examples.

\n

Example

\n
#set page("us-letter")\n\nThere you go, US friends!\n
