A writer document is always rendered complete with all pages, so in
that case the size will tell you the dimensions of the whole document.
Usually this is enough but sometimes you also need want to know where
the actual pages are located in the document. This is what
getPartPageRectangles returns - the rectangles of pages in the
document.

Impress and Draw however are different - there a slide/page is
rendered separately so you have to switch parts to switch slide/pages.
