I took a brief look into pdfmark.tmac, and didn't see any way to set
these. However, you can always set these later with a tool such as

As a practical matter, these settings are ignored (or can be ignored) by

inconvenience that irritates your viewers, not an effective control
mechanism. I strongly recommend that you omit them.
