(v13) The pagebbox operator

This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; both Harlequin Core and Harlequin MultiRIP

internaldict pagebbox llx lly urx ury

Returns the coordinates of a bounding box containing all marks on the current page. The reported coordinates are the x and y coordinates of the lower left and upper right corners of the box, given in default user units (points) and take account of line widths, joins, and other styles. The bounding box for a font character is taken from the font definition, allowing for the space between each character and the next character and may be slightly larger than the marks for that character. pagebbox does not consider pending marks, that is, paths awaiting a stroking or filling operation.

Note: pagebbox returns a nocurrentpoint error if there are no marks on the page.
