Paths

A path is a set of straight and curved line segments. Paths can be open, as in the case of
lines, or closed, as in the case of rectangles, circles, or any fully enclosed area of any
shape. The segments may be connected with one another, or they may be disconnected.
Further, a path may contain multiple closed subpaths, representing several areas, and
they may intersect themselves in arbitrary ways.
Paths can be used to draw lines and curves or specify boundaries of filled areas, includ-
ing the outline of a character.
Paths are explained more fully in section Path Mode Graphics on page 16.

Logical Page and Physical Page

The logical page defines the limits of the coordinates within which text and graphics can
be located. There are two types of logical page, as shown in the following figure. The
standard mode logical page imposes limits on specifiable coordinates. The coordinates
have no limitations for the path mode logical page.
