[Please excuse that the initial attempt to post this used HTML (for a table, to enhance clarity) 
but that was more mangled than anticipated in the list conversion to plaintext. So (again for 
clarity) I post again, in plaintext.]


Anchoring an entity (frame, box, image, ...) is done with respect to position references:
*Horizontal*:
    Paragraph area
    Paragraph text area
    Left paragraph border
    Right paragraph border
    Left page border
    Right page border
    Entire page
    Page text area
*Vertical*:
    Margin
    Paragraph text area
    Entire page
    Page text area

Where are these references defined?  They are not covered in the Help or the Writer Guide or the 
OpenDocument Format OASIS standard, and the names and experimentation have not given a clear 
picture. For example, what are these differences:
        1. Top (or Bottom) with respect to Margin or Page text area?
        2. Left with respect to Left page border or Entire page?
        3. Left with respect to Left paragraph border or Paragraph area or Paragraph text area or 
Page text area?
        4. Right with respect to Right page border or Entire page?
        5. Right with respect to Right paragraph border or Paragraph area or Paragraph text area or 
Page text area?

I'm sure these references are defined somewhere, and I have just missed it; can someone point me in 
the right direction?  If there is not a little graphical aid somewhere, I would like to produce 
one, but don't have the clarity of definitions to do so.

Thanks,
John
