PostScript envelope size support

The literal names in “Envelope sizes supported” on page 16 are a lso supported as operators in userdict. These

operators change the image size, but do not change the active paper source. Therefore, when these operators are used,

part of the image may be clipped.

When these literal names are used as operators, it is equivalent to executing the following PostScript emulation

sequence. The following example uses a 3.875 x 7.5 envelope.
