Compressed Print Density Fonts provide six other fonts with
higher density print characteristics. See "Fonts, Compressed
Print Density" on page 85.
Each of the three pitches, 10 cpi, 12 cpi, and 15 cpi (measured in
characters per inch, cpi) produce non-expandable characters 0.1-
inch high and 3, 4, or 5 dot columns wide with a one-dot column
intercharacter spacing.
The 7 cpi font produces non-expandable characters 0.2-inch high
and 0.15-inch wide with a 2-dot column intercharacter spacing at
approximately 7 cpi.
You can select any specific font from any of the four
alphanumerics commands using the Font Parameter (special
combinations of the alphanumeric command height and width
parameters) as described in Table 10.
The Rot. Char Size option setting (from the front panel menu)
determines if rotated (clockwise / counter-clockwise), expanded
characters have a different size than an unrotated character with
the same size parameters ("Adjusted") or the same size ("Not
Adjusted"). The previous VGL version always operated in the
Adjusted mode.
The Adjusted mode reflects rotating a fixed 5x7 cell character on
a 60x72 dpi, non-symmetrical printer. The Not Adjusted mode
reflects rotating on a symmetrical dpi printer.
