!R! Text 'A'; Cir 1; Exit; Command Parameters Each of these commands prints the capital letter 'A' inside a circle. In the printout shown above, the unit is centimeters. The reason that the letter 'A' is off center in the circle is that the cursor is not located at the center of the circle, but at left corner of the letter 'A'. The command !R! TEXT 'a'; CIR 1; EXIT; prints a lowercase a because the letter occurs inside a character string. The sole exception to upper and lowercase usage in PRESCRIBE commands occurs with the initializing !R! command. This command must always use an uppercase R. The printing system will not enter the PRESCRIBE mode in response to !r!. In this manual, PRESCRIBE commands are printed in upper-case for readability. Outside of PRESCRIBE mode, the printing system always distinguishes between uppercase and lowercase letters and prints exactly what is sent. Special Parameters Some PRESCRIBE commands use unquoted strings of characters as parameters. Examples for these are the FSET (change current font set by characteristic) command and the CSET (change symbol set by symbol-set ID) command. (See Chapter 4 for a detailed explanation of how these commands are used to select fonts.) The FSET and CSET commands use parameters that closely resemble the command parameters used for font control in Hewlett-Packard's printer control language. For example, the PRESCRIBE command FSET 0p12h12v0s0b6T; selects the font whose characteristics most closely matches the following font parameters: • Monospaced font (0p) • Character spacing of 12 characters/inch (12h) • Character height of 12 points (12v) • Upright style (0s) • Medium weight (0b) • LetterGothicBM12-Roman typeface (6T) In Hewlett-Packard's PCL, the corresponding command would be ESC(s0p12h12v0s0b6T 1-13
