HOST FORMS DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE

Do not use DOT LEADER in the JUSTIFIED mode. DOT LEADER
overrides any alignment mode and places the text flush with the
column boundaries.
USING FONT n specifies a change of font for the next body of
text which is not the dot leader string. When you specify dot
leaders and a change of fonts together, the DOT LEADER
keywords must precede the FONT n keywords.
NEW LINE specifies a new line to follow a text string. You can
only use the NEW LINE keyword once between text strings.
NEW LINE is similar to a blank text string (' '). If you want to use
multiple blank lines between text strings, use multiple blank text
strings (' ' ' ' ' '), not NEW LINE. NEW LINE is ignored if it is not
used with DOT LEADER or FONT n .
IN NEXT HORIZONTAL or VERTICAL BOX specifies the text to
place in an adjacent box (horizontally or vertically). Adjacent
boxes must have a common, congruent side. For example, IN
NEXT HORIZONTAL BOX... produces the results shown in Figure
3–15.
Figure 3–15.
IN NEXT VERTICAL BOX... produces the results shown in Figure
3–16.
Figure 3–16.
Defaults
HORIZONTAL, if you do not specify the box orientation. The
same applies for [IN] [NEXT] [HORIZONTAL/VERTICAL] [BOX...];
The font index of the last FONT command, if USING FONT is
not entered. If you omit FONT in all text commands, then FONT
1 from the FONT list is used.
DOTS, if you do not specify units .
CENTER, if you do not specify the alignment. The same applies
for the IN [TOP, .......BOTTOM] BOX.... for text placement
within a box.
