_P_i_c is a _d_i_t_r_o_f_f preprocessor for drawing simple figures on
a typesetter. The basic objects are _b_o_x, _l_i_n_e, _a_r_r_o_w, _c_i_r_-
_c_l_e, _e_l_l_i_p_s_e, _a_r_c and text.
The optional argument --PP_t specifies output device _t;
currently supported typesetters are _v_a (or varian, the
default), _v_p (or versatec), _i_p (or imagen). The options --xx#
and --yy# reset the upper limit on width and height of the
resulting figure. Their default settings are 8.0 and 10.0
(values are given and set in units of inches only). There
is an internal limit of 32767 _t_y_p_e_s_e_t_t_e_r units to both hor-
izontal and vertical limits. On a varian or versatec dev-
ice, for example, this is 163 inches.
