| Decimals | the decimal places of measurements |
| 1 unit = | how long one drawing unit is, in the unit written next to it |
| Scale 1 : | the scale denominator (50 = 1:50): it changes the paper, not the measurements |

| Rotation step | the rotation step with SHIFT and with ALT + arrow keys, in degrees; empty means 15 |
| Page layout | free: pages stay where you put them; rows: in rows, in their order |
| Pages per row | in rows: how many pages per row; 0 = a single row, 1 = a single column |
| Page gap | in rows: the space between pages; empty means 20 mm |

Document or editor
The rows up to Page gap belong to the document: they go into the history and are saved. The five after the divider line belong to the editor: they are not undone and not saved.
