User-Defined Characters Superscripts and subscripts You can also create superscript and subscript user-defined characters. Just as Letter Quality characters are defined when the Letter Quality mode is selected, super/subscript characters are created when either superscript or subscript is selected. These super/subscript characters can be used either as superscripts or as subscripts. The characters are exactly the same; it is only their placement that differs. The difference between super/subscript characters and regular characters is that they are smaller. They are a maximum of 16 dots high and their width in dot columns is shown in the table below: Draft Letter Quality Proportional dl (maximum) 7 23 I 23 I d0 + dl + d2 (maximum) 12 36 42 I Since super/subscript characters are smaller, they don't require as much information when you define them. When you define super/subscript characters, you need only two bytes of data for each vertical row of dots. Design grids for these characters are shown in the figure below.

User-Defined Characters
Superscripts and subscripts
You can also create superscript and subscript user-defined
characters. Just as Letter Quality characters are defined when the
Letter Quality mode is selected, super/subscript characters are
created when either superscript or subscript is selected.
These super/subscript characters can be used either as superscripts
or as subscripts. The characters are exactly the same; it is only their
placement that differs. The difference between super/subscript
characters and regular characters is that they are smaller. They are a
maximum of 16 dots high and their width in dot columns is shown
in the table below:

Since super/subscript characters are smaller, they don’t require as
much information when you define them. When you define
super/subscript characters, you need only two bytes of data for
each vertical row of dots. Design grids for these characters are
shown in the figure below.
