# Description

Use the yOffset property to control the placement of an EPS on the paper when it's printed.

The yOffset is the distance in points from the top edge of the paper to the top edge of the postScript object. This controls the placement of the postScript object when it's rendered.

The yOffset of an EPS is equal to the second item in the object's boundingBox property.

This property is supported only on Unix systems with Display PostScript installed.
