Correcting the axes
Adjust the X and Y coordinates of the plotting to those of the set paper. The angle is adjustable within ±5°. In this
manner, the plotting can be adjusted to the angle of the paper, even though it is set slightly tilted. With the X and Y
axes of the front-side plotting aligned, if you are doing reverse-side plotting, set the paper so that there is no
discrepancy from the front-side plotting.
