The number represents clockwise ;; rotation of the paper in degrees. Permitted values are 0, 90, 180, ;; 270. ;; ;; LLX, LLY, URX, URY: Bounding box of the drawable.

(This can be derived from the ;; other parameters, but not without roundoff error. These values are ;; included to avoid this error.) ;; ;; LEFT, BOTTOM, TOP, RIGHT: (optional) Margins around the window. ;; The margins extend the imageable area beyond the boundaries of the ;; window. This is primarily used for popup zoom windows. I have ;; encountered several instances of PostScript programs that position ;; themselves with respect to the imageable area. The margins are ;; specified in PostScript points. If omitted, the margins are ;; assumed to be 0.
