    [docs]: Fix content nits.
    
    Use declarative sentence when describing the device description file's
    `papersize` directive, to better parallel other entries.  Stop using
    "physical" to characterize the output medium; it's unnecessary and
    invites confusion over whether a "physical" medium is actual paper or
    what a PDF viewing application or web browser renders.  Tighten wording.
