Design grids The grid on the right side of Figure 6-5 can be used for either Letter Quality or proportional characters. For Letter Quality you do not use all the columns. See Table 6-3 for further information. There is one restriction in designing characters. Dots in the same row may not print in adjacent columns. That is, there must be an empty dot position to the left and to the right of each dot that prints. This is true in draft, Letter Quality, and proportional. 6-12

dots wide, with the dots for both Letter

Figure

the two design grids. The line at the side labelled
cap indicates the top of a standard capital letter, and the line labelled
base indicates the baseline for all letters except those with descenders
(the bottom parts of such letters as j and y). The bottom row is usually
left blank because it is used for underlining.

Letter Quality/Proportional
Figure 6-5. Design grids
The grid on the right side of Figure
6-5
can be used for either Letter
Quality or proportional characters. For Letter Quality you do not use
all the columns. See Table 6-3 for further information.
There is one restriction in designing characters. Dots in the same
row may not print in adjacent columns. That is, there must be an
empty dot position to the left and to the right of each dot that prints.
This is true in draft, Letter Quality, and proportional.
