Graphics
Graphics contain line drawings, such as arcs and lines.
The area containing the entire drawing is called the graphics presentation
space. Usually, only a part of the drawing will be printed. This part is referred
to as the graphics presentation space window.
Figure 4. Generating Graphics
To place the graphics presentation space window onto a logical page, it must
be mapped to a graphics block on the logical page. This block can be the
same size, larger, or smaller than the graphics presentation space.
When you map the window to the graphics block, you have three methods to
choose from:
• Scale to fit mapping - The window will be the same size as the graphics
block.
• Center and trim mapping - The window is centered inside the graphics
block.
• Position and trim mapping - The window's top left corner is mapped to the
graphics block and is affected by the graphics block's offset parameters.
