Figure 2. 34. Clipping Rectangle Example Path Mode Graphics Printing with Character Paths When a resident scalable (outline) font is selected, you can treat a character as a path and add it to the current path. The PRESCRIBE command is CPTH (Character PaTH). Paths created with the CPTH command can be either stroked or filled. See the following example. !R! RES; UNIT P; NEWP; PAT 26; SFNT 'Helvetica-Bd', 54; PMZP 72, 144; CPTH "xyz"; FILL 1; PAGE; EXIT; Figure 2. 35.

The PAT command on line 4 selects predefined pattern number 26 as the current fill pattern. 2-33
