+ # `@TopMargin' is margin above headers. We want a margin of 3.3c for
+ # the page _body  (i.e., excluding headers), so we have to choose
+ # `@TopMargin' = 3.3c - (`@MidGap' + 1.0f), since running headers are
+ # typeset in 1.0f and followed by a `@MidGap' gap. We take:
+ # 1.0f = 10p = 0.35c and `@MidGap' = 0.75c.
