+<para>First, let's consider the regions on the page.</para>
+
+<para>The white region is the physical page. Its dimensions are determined by
+the <parameter>page.height</parameter> and <parameter>page.width</parameter>
+parameters.</para>
+
+<para>The yellow region is the region-body. The size and placement of
+the region body is constrained by the dimensions labelled in the
+figure.</para>
+
+<para>The pink region at the top of the page is the region-before. The
+darker area inside the region-before is the header text. In XSL, the default
+display alignment for the region-before is <literal>before</literal>, but
+the DocBook stylesheets explicitly make it <literal>after</literal>. That's
+why the darker area is at the bottom.</para>
+
+<para>The pink region at the bottom of the page is the region-after.
+The darker area is the footer text. In XSL, the default display
+alignment for the region-after is <literal>before</literal> (really!),
+but the DocBook stylesheets explicitly make it
+<literal>after</literal>. That's why the darker area is at the bottom.</para>
+
+<para>The dimensions in the figure are:</para>

+region-body margin-left. In DocBook, the region-body margin-left is
+zero by default, so this is simply the page-master region-left.
