Syntax

YMAX=height <IN | CM | PT>

height

is a positive number that can be followed by a unit specification, either IN for inches (default), or CM for centimeters, or PT for points. If you do not specify YMAX, a default height is searched for in this order:

  1. the height specification on an OPTIONS PAPERSIZE setting

  2. YMAX in the device entry catalog.

If YMAX=0, default behavior is used. If both YMAX and PAPERSIZE have been specified on GOPTIONS, the last request is used.
