Designing Enhanced Letter Quality Characters When designing monospaced Enhanced Letter Quality characters, you can use horizontal consecutive dots. To design a character, start with a 35 dot wide by 24 dot high grid. Although the character matrix for an ELQ character is 36 dots wide, the last column must be blank. This example shows the draft design for the capital AE character (ASCII 146) from the All Characters Chart. Note: A blank column must be added after the last column of this character. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 MSB 1 2 3 B Y4 T E5 16 7 LSB 8 MSB 9 10 11 B Y 12 T E 13 2 14 15 LSB 16 MSB 17 18 19 B Y 20 T E 21 3 22 23 LSB 24 Byte 1 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 10 10 13 17 1C 18 10 10 10 10 10 1F 1F 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 1F 1F Byte 2 00 00 00 00 00 03 07 1C 38 E8 C8 08 08 08 08 08 08 08 08 FF FF 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 7C 00 00 00 00 03 03 Byte 3 10 10 10 30 F0 D0 10 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 10 10 F0 F0 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 F0 F0 Compression Mask 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 6 0 0 1 6 B F 3 A 141 Section 7: Downloading Characters and Fonts
