OK, that makes sense ('though I would argue that it should be the
author's responsibility to set page size, and the package should
assume that the author has done so correctly prior to loading the
package), but I still do not know from where it is taking what it
believes (wrongly, in my case) to be the page size. In other words,
rather than using :<br>
<br>
<tt> \input eplain<br>
\beginpackages<br>
\usepackage [nosetpagesize] {color} <br>
\endpackages<br>
<br>
</tt>what should I be setting prior to using package {color} in
order to communicate my intended page size to package {color} ?<br>
<br>
And why does :<br>
<br>
<tt> \input miniltx<br>
\input color<br>
<br>
</tt>/not/ change my page size ?<br>
