BASIC Example:
100 REM ----FonttPitch Selection----
110 REM - 10 cpi pitch selection --
120 LPRINT CHR$(27);"(sI0H";"10 characters/inch"
130 REM --- 16.66 cpi pitch selection --
140 LPRINT CHR$(27);"(sI6.66H";"16.66 characters/inch"
150 LPRINT CHR$(12); :REM -Form Feed--
FONT PITCH SELECTION: ALTERNATE METHOD
Another way to select print pitch is by using the Ec&k#S escape
sequence,
where the value field (#) selects standard (10 cpi), or
compressed (16.66 cpi) print pitch for both the primary and
secondary character fonts as shown following:
Ec&k0S Selects
standard print pitch
Ec &k2S Selects compressed print pitch
For example, if you load a font cartridge containing a standard
pitch
font (10 cpi) and a compressed font (16.66 cpi), you would
send
E
c
&k2S to the printer to specify the compressed font for
both primary and secondary character fonts.
NOTE: You
may override the pitch of a particular font by
changing
the HMI. See the "Horizontal Cursor Spacing"
discussion earlier in this
chapter for more information.
CHARACTER HEIGHT (POINT SIZE) SELECTION
The height of character fonts (character cell size) is specified in
points (each
point is equal to 1/72 of an inch). The point size can
be selected for both the primary and secondary fonts using the
following escape sequences:
Primary font height (in points) Ec(S#V
Secondary font height (in points) EC)S#V
# = Point size
