Designing Monospaced Draft Characters

When designing monospaced draft characters, design the character for 10 cpi
output and use as many dot-columns as possible. This method also creates a
better designed 12 cpi draft character.
To design a draft character, start with a grid that is 9 dots wide by 24 dots high.
Although the character matrix for a draft character is 10 dots wide, the last
column must be blank.
