Paper (Java Platform SE 7 b138)

java.lang.Object
- java.awt.print.Paper

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable
```
public class Paper
extends Object
implements Cloneable
```
The Paper class describes the physical characteristics of a piece of paper.
When creating a Paper object, it is the application's responsibility to ensure that the paper size and the imageable area are compatible. For example, if the paper size is changed from 11 x 17 to 8.5 x 11, the application might need to reduce the imageable area so that whatever is printed fits on the page.

setSize(double, double), setImageableArea(double, double, double, double)

public double getHeight()
```
    Returns the height of the page in 1/72nds of an inch.
    
    Returns:
    the height of the page described by this Paper.
  - setSize
```
public void setSize(double width,
           double height)
```
    Sets the width and height of this Paper object, which represents the properties of the page onto which printing occurs. The dimensions are supplied in 1/72nds of an inch.
    
    Parameters:
    width - the value to which to set this Paper object's width
    height - the value to which to set this Paper object's height
  - getWidth
```
public double getWidth()
```
    Returns the width of the page in 1/72nds of an inch.
    
    Returns:
    the width of the page described by this Paper.
  - setImageableArea
```
public void setImageableArea(double x,
                    double y,

public double getImageableY()
```
    Returns the y coordinate of the upper-left corner of this Paper object's imageable area.
    
    Returns:
    the y coordinate of the imageable area.
  - getImageableWidth
```
public double getImageableWidth()
```
    Returns the width of this Paper object's imageable area.
