Mixing Data Formats
There are no restrictions on mixing data formats. Simply specify the new format to be used and
follow it with data in the new format. Note that by restricting data values to binary values
between 32 and 63, the printing graphics characters and numbers, the plotting commands "a-z"
can be intermixed in the binary data.
Examp 1e:
Move the pen to 360,180 in ASCII absolute format, then draw a box 10 units wide by
5 units high using binary short incremental.
