+\textbf{Desription:}
+Margins are the distance between the subtitle text and the edge of the frame. They are used for
+improved aesthetics, readability, and to avoid issues with overscan. Unless manually overriden
+by another tag (such as \textbackslash pos), the text should always be contained inside the box
+defined by the script area minus the four borders, as long as automatic line breaking mode is
+set (see the section on [AS5]).
 
-\subsubsection{\textbackslash top}
-\todo{Write me}
+All distance values are specified in script coordinates. The default value for all borders is 12.
+Margin tags can only be present once per line, and will affect all of it, not just the following
+block. Margin tags cannot be animated.
+
+\textbf{Implementation:}
+The default positioning of the pivot point of the subtitles box is also determined by the margins.
+On left-align, the \emph{x} of pivot is set to the left margin; on right-align, to $w - r$,
+and on middle-align, to $\frac{w + r - l}{2}$, where \emph{w} is the script width, \emph{r} is
+the value of the right margin and \emph{l} is the value of the left margin, that is, it is put
+halfway between the edges defined by the margins. The rules are analogous to the \emph{y} coordinate.
