Doug, this is a good catch.

The text specifies right-handed coordinate system; however, the 
references for the coordinate system in Figure 33.1 and text in 33.2.3 
that it is left-handed. A RHS would be (r,s,t), but the text indicates 
that the coordinate system is (s,t,r). It appears that the image plane 
coordinates are (s,t) and R is the plane layer. The diagram appears to 
be logically correct implying a LHS, but that is not consistent with the 
general use of RHS throughout X3D.
