Result of Draw Commands: Zero-relative Lines

The first two lines switch the printing system to the PRESCRIBE mode, reset printing

system parameters, and set the line width to 0.01 inch. On the third line, the MZP (Move

to Zero-relative Position) differs from the MAP (Move to Absolute Position) command

in one respect: the position specified is in relation to the top and left edge page limits of

the page, rather than in relation to the top and left page margins. MZP moves the cursor

to the point that is 0.5 inches from the left edge limit and 1 inch from the top edge limit.

Similarly, on the next line, DZP (Draw to Zero-relative Position) draws a line from the

starting position to the point 2 inches from the left edge limit and 0.5 inches from the top

edge limit.

Relative Lines

Another way to specify positions is in relation to the current cursor position. The follow-

ing command sequence provides an example.
