Chapter 3: Character Size & Spacing Commands This chapter describes the commands used to set the size and spacing of characters printed: • Pitch Setting Commands • Superscript & Subscript Commands • Double Width & Height Commands • Combined Print Features Command • Character Spacing Commands Pitch Setting Commands These commands are used to select the pitch in characters per inch (cpi) used. For example, at 10 cpi, each character is 1/10" wide. The number of characters that will fit on a line depends on the pitch you have selected and on whether you have a narrow carriage or a wide carriage printer. You can also set pitch using the printer's front panel or the menu (see "Menu Mode" in your printer manual).

Chapter 3: Character Size & Spacing Commands
This chapter describes the commands used to set the size and spacing of characters printed:
•
Pitch Setting Commands
•
Superscript & Subscript Commands

Character Spacing Commands
Pitch Setting Commands
These commands are used to select the pitch in characters per inch (cpi) used. For example, at
10 cpi, each character is 1/10" wide. The number of characters that will fit on a line depends
on the pitch you have selected and on whether you have a narrow carriage or a wide carriage
printer. You can also set pitch using the printer's front panel or the menu (see “Menu Mode” in
your printer manual).
