Description
This function sets the page margins of the current and following pages. The "left", "right", "top", and "bottom" parameters specify the distances from the edges. The parameters "x" and "y" specify a point on the current page where the new margin starts. For the next pages, the parameters "x" and "y" are ignored and thus the margins will affect the entire area of the upcoming pages. The "line_space" parameter specifies the amount of white space between each line. The default margins are configured in the "pdf.ini" file.
