* c # L

# =The vertical size in inches

Default = height of the currently selected picture frame

Range = 0 to 32767 (valid to 4 decimal places)

The vertical HP-GL/2 plot size value determines the vertical scaling

factor used to fit the drawing into the PCL Picture Frame. For

example, if the vertical HP-GL/2 plot size is specified as 7 inches

and the PCL Picture Frame height is 14 inches, the vertical scaling

factor would be 1:2; the vertical component of the image would be

orientation command defaults the HP-GL/2 plot size to the height

of the currently selected picture frame, resulting in no scaling.

Example:

If the original HP-GL/2 drawing is 7 inches tall, send:
