Absolute character size command
S1width, height [;]
This command specifies the size of labeling characters in centimeters.
The default width and height depend on the pitch and size selected with the
AD or SD command.
Once this command is given, the width and height of characters do not
change when PI and P2 move.
Without parameters, this command selects the size implied by AD or SD.
Width specifies the width of characters; negative values imply mirror images
about a vertical line.
Height specifies the height of capital M; negative values imply mirror images
about a horizontal line.
When using stick fonts, a change of character size will affect the thickness
of the line used to draw the characters. When appropriate, the parameters are
multiplied by the ratio [size of picture frame]/[plot size]
