91: The default
92: coordinate system has the origin fixed at the
93: center of the page, with positive
94: x to the right and positive y up the page.
95: Positive
96: .I num
97: moves everything right.
98: The default offset is 0 inches.
99: .TP
100: .OP \-y num

105: .I num
106: moves everything up the page.
107: The default offset is 0.
108: .TP
109: .OP \-L file
110: Use
111: .I file
