+ Magnification (\type {\mag}) is only supported in \DVI\ output mode. You can
+ set this parameter and it even works with \type {true} units till you switch
+ to \PDF\ output mode. When you use \PDF\ output you can best not touch the
+ \type {\mag} variable. This fuzzy behaviour is not much different from using
+ \PDF\ backend related functionality while eventually \DVI\ output is
+ required.
+
+ After the output mode has been frozen (normally that happens when the first
+ page is shipped out) or when \PDF\ output is enabled, the \type {true}
+ specification is ignored. When you preload a plain format adapted to
+ \LUATEX\ it can be that the \type {\mag} parameter already has been set.
