The xOffset is the distance in points from the left edge of the paper to the left edge of the PostScript object. This controls the placement of the PostScript object when it's rendered.

The xOffset of an EPS object is equal to the first item in the object's boundingBox property.

This property is supported only on Unix systems with Display PostScript installed.
