TEXTS OUTPUT: DISPLAY ALL PAPER COLORS (USING PAPER)

This example shows the entire collection of colors that can be used as paper to color backgrounds. Thanks to the variable PAPER COLORS, it is possible to iterate between the first color (0) to the last one and to draw a text over a specific color index, by using the command PAPER.
