Negative values of width produce right-to-left mirror image characters • height sets the character height to a percentage of |P2y-P2y| and is a clamped real number. Negative values of height produce upside-down mirror image character. • If you change the positions of P1 and P2, the character size will change unless the scaling points remain in the same relative positions. • If you move P2 to the left of, or below P1, characters will appear in mirror image. • If you change the character size, the line width used to draw stick font characters may also change. • If you omit the parameters, the character size is as specified by the most recent SD or AD command. 10 '-Relative Character Size20 WIDTH "LPT1:", 255 30 LPRINT CHR$(27); "E"; 40 LPRINT CHR$(27); "%0B"; 50 LPRINT "IN;SP1;"; 60 LPRINT "IP2000,2000,6500,6500;DT@;" 70 LPRINT "SR;PA0,2700;LBRELATIVE LABEL SIZE@" 80 LPRINT "IP0,0,5500,5500;PA0,2000;" 90 LPRINT "LBNEW P1 AND P2 CHANGE LABEL SIZE@" 100 LPRINT "PA0,1000;SR2.5;LBNEW SR INSTRUCTION`;CP;" 110 LPRINT CHR$(27); "%0A"; 120 LPRINT CHR$(27); "E"; 140 END SL - Character slant SL [ tan φ ] [;] tan φ- tangent of character slant angle (φ) • This command determines the slant of characters printed with subsequent LB commands. • φ is the angle between characters and the vertical. A positive value of φ ( and tan φ ) produces forward sloping characters, while a negative value results in characters which slant backwards. • Values of tan φ are clamped real numbers. • A value of 0 for tan φ results in upright characters. • If you omit the parameter, tan φis take to be 0 and any characters printed will be upright.
