4-bit (16 level) anti-aliasing on 74 ns pixel yields 4.63 ns effective
resolution. Characters are imaged from PostScript Type 1 outline
fonts.
35 built-in, PostScript Type 1 importable
Character can be placed anywhere on screen (or off screen for rolling
and crawling in or out) with any size, rotation. Stretch horizontally or

Images PCX, JPEG, GIF, and standard PostScript EPS and proprietary
APS (EPS with Alpha transparency layer) graphics generated by
graphic applications on a variety of computer platforms. Images can
be any size and may be scaled, skewed, and rotated when placed on
screen. Transparency and anti-aliasing can be defined when graphic is
created. Object-based (vector) elements in EPS files automatically
anti-aliased.
Four directions supported—up, down, left, and right
Controlled by speed factor (1-10) or duration time. Auto calculates
speed to achieve closest possible time to desired duration.
