I'm having trouble getting the text properly out on our LaserWriter using
A4 format paper.  Somebody suggested that I twiddle with the .pro files.
I would appreciate knowing the units of some of the numbers in those files.
In enscript.pro there is:

/Landscape{90 rotoate 0 -15840 translate} def

Very nice, but what are 15840's units?  And where does that number come from?
Shouldn't it be dependant on the pagetype(size)?  Thanks for any clarification.
