Etymology

From Medieval Latin paginare, from Latin pagina.

Meanings

1. (transitive) To number the pages of (a book or other document); to foliate.
   • Each table is now paginated. That makes it straightforward if you wish to print a few pages of a long table by entering the page numbers required into the printer file. 2022 January 26, Barry Doe, “Fabrik offers an end to hard times”, in RAIL, number 949, page 38:
2. (transitive) To divide (a continuous stream of text) into pages.
   • Word-processing applications are designed to automatically paginate a continuous flow of text, and this require additional capabilities such as page breaks and image-positioning for some control over page layout. However, this makes tasks such as laying out a double- page magazine spread very difficult. 2016, Jefferson D. Pooley, Eric W. Rothenbuhler, editor, The International Encyclopedia of Communication Theory and Philosophy, volume 4, page 943:
3. (transitive) To separate (data) into batches, so that it can be retrieved with a number of smaller requests.
