  There are four resources that can be used to cali-
  brate the position and size of an image on a print-
  out:  PrintScreen.plxtranslate, PrintScreen.plytranslate,
  PrintScreen.plxscale and PrintScreen.plyscale.  These
  resources are used for landscape Postcript images only by
  specifying the resources and associated values in the system
  or user resources file.  The resource units and descriptions
  are the following:

  -   PrintScreen.plxtranslate:  (inches_in_real_decimal)

      Horizontally shifts the image from its original position.
      Positive value shifts the image to the right.  Negative
      value shifts the image to the left.
  -   PrintScreen.plytranslate:  (inches_in_real_decimal)

      Vertically shifts the image from its original position.
      Positive value shifts the image downward.  Negative value
      shifts the image upward.

  -   PrintScreen.plxscale:  (real_decimal)
      Specifies the horizontal scaling factor.  The image is scaled
      by the factor in decimal of its original size.

  -   PrintScreen.plyscale:  (real_decimal)

      Specifies the vertical scaling factor.  The image is scaled
      by the factor in decimal of its original size.
