%% |photobook| extends the |book| class adding page layout types, bleeds

%% are generalized as |cell|s. A |cell| is similar to a figure, it can
%% be placed within the document flow, but unlike a figure a |cell| can
%% be aligned relative to a page, it can fill a page, a cell can even be
%% horizontally split to fill several pages (how spreads are implemented).
%%
%% On top of the |cell|, page, and spread concepts, |photobook| also builds
%% a set of configurable high level macros and templates for common use
%% cases like full bleed image spreads, etc.
