Coordinate references.

[Thomas Troesch]

Yes.  You must be using a workaround from the Windows check printing bug
and multiplying everything by 8.33 to get values at 600dpi.  So a 1/4"
is equivalent to 150.

If you use Coords_1=750;1000;3333;167  the line should move down .25
inches.  I added 150 to the second value.

In general its x,y or x,y,width,height.  y increases as you move down the
page.

The last two numbers define a clipping box for the field when it is
printed, width by height, if the values are given.  I find it useful for
fields that occasionally may be very large, like a memo.  That way the
field clips rather than printing over another field.  You don't want the
PAYEE printing over the AMOUNT for instance.  Its also important when
printing the stub when you have that type of check.

The line Show_Boxes=true will show the bounding boxes on print ( for
testing ), but I don't remember off hand if this works with the Windows
workaround you are using.  I think it just might.

I hope this helps you out.
