I vote for positioning by dots in the current resolution.<br><br>
I vote for the origin to be in the upper left corner.<br><br>
I vote for adding the media size dimensions to the predefined
variables.<br><br>

<font size=2>We basically have two choices: virtual units or current
resolution. Both have some plus and minus. I put that on vote. Default is
current resolution set by raster resolution.</font><br>
<font size=2>Another item to be resolved is the specification of the
origin and therefore reference point for the positioning.</font><br>
<font size=2>Two choices again: upper left (e.g. like Windows) or lower
left (like PostScript). I put that on vote too. Default is upper
left.</font><br>
<br>
<font size=2>Whatever the decision is I think some people will need two
more predefined variables: DRV_PageWidth and DRV_PageLength. The driver
will have to provide these in the same units as
DRV_HorPos/DRV_VertPos.</font><br>
<font size=2>I will add them to DRV_keys.txt. Please indicate
agreement.</font><br>
<br>
<font size=2>I will close the vote on March, 7th (next
Friday).</font><br>
<font size=2>Please vote and comment. Any other requirements in this
area?<br>
