i don't know, but the document content is painted from
SwRootFrm::Paint(), which therefore is a place where you should _not_
implement this (because everything in there depends on which part of the
document is currently displayed), but if you set a breakpoint there and
go a bit up the stack then perhaps you'll see a more suitable location...
