Sending a VT command with no stops set will produce a single line feed. The commands described below are used to set vertical tab stops. In the Epson and MICROLINE Standard emulations, you have the option of entering a single set of vertical tab stops or of using the electronic Vertical Format Unit (VFU) to program multiple sets of vertical tabs, called channels. The IBM emulation permits you to enter one set of stops, but does not have the VFU feature. The actual position of the stops depends on the line spacing in effect when you send the command. For example, at 6 lines per inch, a tab stop of 24 will appear four inches from the top of the page, whereas at 8 lines per inch, the stop will be positioned three inches from the top of the page. However, once you've set the vertical tab stops, their position is absolute, and won't move, even if you later change the line spacing. Chapter 9: Vertical Control Commands 93
