I'm trying to open up a presentation space using units other than pels and
I'm having a strange time!

When I open up a PS with _LOENGLISH and draw a square, and then with _HIENGLISH
and draw a square the _LOENGLISH square is << NOT >> 10 times bigger.

The manual says that _LOENGLISH is in units of .01 inches and that _HIENGLISH
is in units of .001 inches.  I would think that would mean that the same
coords would be scales by a factor of ten.  To me it seems to only be scales
by about a factor of 4 ?!?

Does ANYONE know what is going on???

I would really appreciate some insight here!

-Gary
