You can use the Character Plot (CP) command to move the pen a specific number of lines or spaces (character cells) from the current pen location. Use the CP command, for example, to indent a label a certain number of spaces. Label Orientation and Placement You can place your labels anywhere on the page in any orientation. The Absolute Direction (DI) command specifies the angle at which you want to print the characters, independent of the location of P1 and P2. The Relative Direction (DR) command specifies the angle at which you want to print the characters as a function of the P1 and P2 distance; thus when you change P1 and P2, the label angle changes to maintain the same orientation. The DI and DR commands allow you to print text at any angle with the letters in their normal side-by-side orientation. Note Figure 23-2 Label Orientation and Direction Bit map characters are always printed orthogonally to the page (refer to Figure 23-17). Scalable characters print in the direction specified.
