Chapter 2 Command Codes
Fonts, Rotatable
Purpose Using special parameter values within any of the four
alphanumeric commands described on page 26, you can specify
four different fonts.
Mode Normal resolution Graphics with an Extended Graphics
Command selected.
Format (cc)
expand font jus data (cc)-
(cc) Represents the Special Function Control Code
(SFCC). Enter the specific SFCC for your Code V
configuration.
expand Represents one of the alphanumeric command
mnemonics: Enter M for horizontal, V for clockwise,
E for counterclockwise, or U for inverted.
font Represents the four-digit font parameter value
which selects the font. Font parameter values are
shown in Table 10.
jus Defines vertical justification (position) for character
printing in tenth inches and dot rows. Enter a three-
digit value ranging from 000 through 999 to define
the printing location down from the starting position
of the command sequence. The first two digits
specify 0.1 through 9.9 inches downward
justification; the third digit specifies an additional 0
through 9 dot rows of downward justification. The
decimal point between the first two digits is
automatically understood by the Code V and the
third digit is automatically interpreted as dot rows.
data The data characters for printing in the rotatable
font.
(cc)- Graphics Mode CR used as a sequence terminator.
Enter the SFCC for your IGP configuration
immediately followed by - to end the command
sequence.
Comments Compressed print density fonts provide six other fonts with higher
density print characteristics. Refer to “Fonts, Compressed Print
Density” on page 71.
Each of the three pitches, 10 cpi, 12 cpi, and 15 cpi (measured in
characters per inch, cpi) produce non-expandable characters 0.1-
inch high and 3, 4, or 5 dot columns wide with a one-dot column
intercharacter spacing.
Note If your data to be printed begin with a number (not a
character), then you must complete the field; otherwise, the
Code V will assume the number is a digit in the field value.
