GS u – Set Characters per Line in Portrait
Description
Creates an internal memory buffer to store portrait text and bar codes. The size of the
buffer is determined by n, the number of characters per line.
The n parameter is converted internally to millimeters, so new line lengths can be
automatically calculated in the event that a font change takes place. The conversion to
millimeters is performed by multiplying the value of n by the width of whatever font is
currently set when the GS u command is sent.
This command may be used in conjunction with the GS T command to determine where,
if at all, text wraps to the next line.
This command is similar to the GS t command.
