Attribute byte 2 is not used when specifying NLQ II. Set it to zero. Bit Functions Printable Data (Columns 1 to 23) • Defines the column data for each character from left to right. • Column 24 is always blank; therefore, only 23 columns can be defined. • There are 2 bytes per dot column, 46 bytes of printable data for each character. The two bytes of each dot-column are defined as follows: • The first byte defines dots in rows 1, 3, 5...15 (3, 5, 7...17 for descender characters). • The second byte defines dots in rows 2, 4, 6...16 (4, 6, 8...18 for descender characters). Consecutive horizontal dots are eliminated (except in emphasized mode). The number of consecutive horizontal dots should always be odd (for example 1, 3, 5, 7, 9) to ensure that a character appears the same when printed leftto-right or right-to-left. 117 Section 7: Downloading Characters and Fonts
