PostScript
4-18
Envelope Size Support
The literal names in Table 4-6 are also supported as operators in userdict. These
operators change the image size, but do not change the active paper source.
Therefore, when these operators are used, part of the image may be clipped.
When these literal names are used as operators, it is equivalent to executing the
following PostScript emulation sequence. The following example uses a 3.875 x 7.5
envelope.
