Basic Concepts
When the printing system passes the bottom margin while printing text, it prints the page
and feeds to the next page. Spacing is carried over, so if the bottom margin does not
occur at an exact number of lines, excess space is printed at the top of the next page.
If you are using word-processing software that sets the margins automatically, you
should not set them with PRESCRIBE commands.
Page Orientation and Direction

Landscape orientation
The term page orientation refers to the direction in which text is placed on the page. In a
vertical direction, it would be called portrait and a horizontal direction would be called
landscape. The term print direction, which follows this section, refers to the orientation
of the logical page’s coordinate system with respect to the current page orientation.
