But Emacs can't afford that because of the buffer concept. It would be great to have a mode which lets the user/package to utilize an infinite buffer space where we can place text and images as we wish. A restriction of adding stuff to the left might not be necessary because of indentation but it may be an option too. After deactivating the mode the extra space from top, bottom and the sides will be removed so that we cannot add stuff to outer space just by magic. https://github.com/politza/pdf-tools/issues/27 The above issue is just sitting there and Emacs has no option about it as far as I can guess. If there is an option to solve the above issue then it would be a pleasure to hear about it. Abhishek(Compro) Prasad
