NAME

       plspage - Set page parameters

SYNOPSIS

       plspage(xp, yp, xleng, yleng, xoff, yoff)

DESCRIPTION

       Sets  the page configuration (optional).  If an individual parameter is zero then that parameter value is
       not updated.  Not all parameters are  recognized  by  all  drivers  and  the  interpretation  is  device-
       dependent.  The  X-window  driver  uses the length and offset parameters to determine the window size and
       location.  The length and offset values are expressed in units that are specific to the  current  driver.
       For  instance:  screen  drivers  will usually interpret them as number of pixels, whereas printer drivers
       will usually use mm.

       This routine, if used, must be called before initializing PLplot.  It may be called at  later  times  for
       interactive  drivers  to  change  only  the  dpi for subsequent redraws which you can force via a call to
       plreplot(3plplot).  If this function is not called then the  page  size  defaults  to  landscape  A4  for
       drivers  which  use  real world page sizes and 744 pixels wide by 538 pixels high for raster drivers. The
       default value for dx and dy is 90 pixels per inch for raster drivers.

       Redacted form: plspage(xp, yp, xleng, yleng, xoff, yoff)

       This function is used in examples 14 and 31.

ARGUMENTS

       xp (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              Number of pixels per inch (DPI), x. Used only by raster drivers,  ignored  by  drivers  which  use
              "real world" units (e.g. mm).

       yp (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              Number  of  pixels  per  inch (DPI), y.  Used only by raster drivers, ignored by drivers which use
              "real world" units (e.g. mm).

       xleng (PLINT(3plplot), input)
              Page length, x.

       yleng (PLINT(3plplot), input)
              Page length, y.

       xoff (PLINT(3plplot), input)
              Page offset, x.

       yoff (PLINT(3plplot), input)
              Page offset, y.
