Well, I thought that this was supposed to make it into the IDL V3.6
manual, but I did not see it in the index. Use !x.omargin and
!y.omargin to set the "outside margin". This works just like
!x(y).margin except that it applies to the entire page. Therefore,
!p.multi plots along with any further manipulation of !x(y).margin
affect only what happens inside the box created by using !x(y).omargin.
You can then place you text at the top of the page in the usual ways.
