<imageinsert> width=n, height=n, When set, these dimensions are used and image is scaled accordingly. When default values (0) are encountered instead, image dimensions depend upon the value of orient: When set to either prt (portrait) or lsc (landscape), default images sizes of 150 x 210 or 210 x 150 are used, respectively; otherwise (orient = null or ""), the images actual dimensions are used.
Note: using the image's actual dimensions rather than supplying them or relying on defaults requires that the entire image be read before being rendered; for large images, supply dimensions when possible for faster rendering.

<image> width=n, height=n, When set, these dimensions are used and image is scaled accordingly. When default values (0) are encountered instead, image dimensions depend upon the value of orient: When set to either prt (portrait) or lsc (landscape), default images sizes of 300 x 420 or 420 x 3050 are used, respectively; otherwise (orient = null or ""), the images actual dimensions are used.
