Description
It seems like the size attribute only works with units of pixels, i.e. this does not work
p = scatter(rand(1000), rand(1000);margin=3.0mm,title="A bunch of points", xlabel="x-value", ylabel="y-value",label="Some points",size=(100mm, 90mm))

In Winston, the savefig function accepts optional width and height arguments, which can both be given as e.g. width = "100mm", and this would be a good alternative here, too.
