+\section{Introduction}
+\pstPutAbs[position=rb,unit=1pt](0.95\paperwidth,-10){\texttt{pst-abspos}}
+The package \LPack{pst-abspos} allows absolute positioning of objects. In \TeX{} the
+actual ''cursor'' position is the \Index{origin} of the \Index{paper plane}. This makes it difficult
+to put objects into absolute positions. The only constant position is the
+origin of the paper plane, the upper left corner, which is 1 inch right
+and 1 inch down. This absolute PostScript origin is not the one for the textarea
+of \TeX, because it adds the horizontal margins \Lcs{oddsidemargin} and for the first
+line \Lskip{parskip}. In the vertical direction there are added \Lskip{topskip},
+\Ldim{headheight} and \Ldim{headsep}. This is a bit confusing because there are different
+origins of the paper plane:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item the upper left corner of the paper \pstPutAbs[position=lt](0,0){\qdisk(0,0){5pt}%
+ \raisebox{-2ex}{\red Absolute Paper Origin}}
+\item the PostScript origin 1 inch from left and 1 inch from top
+ \pstPutAbs[unit=1in,position=lC](1,-1){\qdisk(0,0){5pt}\red ~~PostScript Origin}
+\item the \TeX{} origin, adding \verb|\oddsidemargin| or \verb|\evensidemargin| to 1 inch and
+ substract \verb|\topskip|, \verb|\headheight| and \verb|\headsep| from the top
+ \qdisk(pstTextOrigin){5pt}\rput[rC](pstTextOrigin){\red Text Origin~~}
+\item the \TeX{} relative origin, which describes the actual ''cursor'' position, like here: \qdisk(0,0){5pt}\rput[lC](0,0){\red "Cursor" Origin}.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\section{Package Options}
+
+\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{lX}
+\Loption{notitlepage} & When there is no titlepage it is easier to run the
+ initialisation macros. In this case the user has only to set the package option.\\
+\Loption{absolute} & the origin is the upper left paper corner\\
+\Loption{lowerleft} & the origin is mirrored to the lower left of the paper plane\\
+\Loption{PostScript} & the origin is 1inch from the left and 1 inch from the top of the paper\\
+\Loption{relative} & the origin is the upper left text area
+\end{tabularx}
+
+Especially the \Loption{lowerleft} option may be useful. Together with the \Loption{absolute}
+option the origin of the paper plane is at the lower left corner (see section~\ref{sec:lowerleft}).
+
+\section{The Macros}
+The package tries to set the origin immediately after a newpage. This is not possible
+with a \Index{title} because of an additional \Lcs{newpage} of the \Lenv{titlepage} environment.
+In this case the user should controll the setting manually with
+the macros
+
+\noindent
+\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{@{}lX@{}}
+\Lcs{pstSetAbsoluteOrigin} & the new origin is the upper left corner of the paper\\
+\Lcs{pstSetPostScriptOrigin} & the new origin is 1 inch from left and 1 inch from top of the upper left corner of the paper\\
+\Lcs{pstSetRelativeOrigin}\Largr{\CAny} & the new origin is the current point for $(0;0)$. All other values are relative to this one.\\
+\Lcs{pstPutAbs}\OptArgs\Largr{\CAny}\Largb{object} & puts any object depending to the option at $(x;y)$.
+\end{tabularx}
+
+The first two macros have to be used immediately after a newpage.
+
+\subsection{Optional Parameters}
+The \Lcs{pstPutAbs} macro can be called with all vaild \verb|pstricks| options and additionally
+with \Lkeyword{position}\verb+=position+, where \Larg{position} can be replaced by the usual placing
+values \Lnotation{lt}, \Lnotation{lC}, \Lnotation{lB}, \Lnotation{lb}, \ldots\ of the well known \Lcs{rput} macro. Important is the
+setting of the \Lkeyword{unit} parameter, because \LPack{pst-abspos} knows nothing about
+the unit. A valid call may be like
+
+\begin{Xverbatim}{\xLcs{pstPutAbs}}
+\pstPutAbs[unit=1in,position=lC](1,-1){%
+ \qdisk(0,0){5pt}\textcolor{red}{~PostScript Origin}}
+\end{Xverbatim}
+
+\section{Examples}
+It is no problem to switch between the different origin settings when calling the
+macros immediately aften a \Lcs{newpage}. If you want to set the origin at the ''cursor''
+position, then the macro can be called just on ''cursor'' position.
