Rotating Fields
You can rotate any type of printable field in increments of 90 degrees
counterclockwise around the field origin. To position a rotated field, you
should keep in mind that the field origin remains on the corner where it was
before you rotated the field. If you rotate a field 90 degrees counterclockwise,
the origin that was at the upper left corner is now at the lower left corner. Use
the field direction command fn to define the field rotation. See Chapter 6,
"Intermec Printer Language Commands," for more information.
•
To rotate a field 90 degrees, you must position the lower left corner of the
rotated field.
•
To rotate a field 180 degrees, you must position the lower right corner of
the rotated field.
•
To rotate a field 270 degrees, you must position the upper right corner of
the rotated field.
Scaling Fields
You can determine the size of a field by the font or graphic you use and the
field magnification factors you apply. The human-readable fonts and bar code
symbologies have default sizes, and the user-defined character fields print as
large as you design them (up to the maximum), but you can scale each of these
fields even further by using magnification commands.
