PRESCRIBE Command Reference
104
FLAT — set FLATness
Format
FLAT flatness;
Parameters
flatness:
number from 1 to 100
Function
The FLAT command determines how smoothly curves in paths are to be drawn when a
STRK or FILL command is used. Higher number values produce rougher curves and
lower number values create smoother curves which require greater computation. The
number actually specifies the maximum error tolerance of a straight line segment
approximation of any portion of the curve.
The printing system resets the flatness to 1 when it receives the RES command.
