Here "c" is a symbol available in the x and y parameters of @Place
but not generally elsewhere (which is a good thing, obviously).
I think you could change your definition to
import @PSLengths
def @ptop { 0.9c }
and it would work, since @PSLengths supplies the "c" symbol. Of
course, you would need to be sure that @PSLengths itself was
available, but I think it gets loaded by @SysInclude { doc }.
