Argument
name
Name to use for the object, preceded by the dollar sign character ($). The name must conform to the rules for names
described in "Names" (page 221).
top
Measure value specifying the distance, in inches, to offset the top edge of the picture object, from the top edge of the doc-
ument page. If you set the snaptoprevious argument to a value other than 0, the value you set for the top argument becomes
the vertical offset for the Snap to previous snapping point.
left
Measure value specifying the distance, in inches, to offset the left edge of the picture object, from the left edge of the doc-
ument page. If you set the snaptoprevious argument to a value other than 0, the value you set for the left argument becomes
the horizontal offset for the Snap to previous snapping point.
