later use. Draft mode must be selected before this command is executed.
nJ
and
n2 give
the number of bytes of character data that will follow.
ao is the character code of the first character defined. al and a2 are at-
tributes bytes. m] to mll are the character data, and are the same as in
< ESC > 'c&. " The attribute byte
a] indicates whether the character is
an ascender (not using the lowest of the nine vertical dots) or a descender
(not using the highest dot) and whether it has a downward extension to
12 dots.
The attribute byte
a2 gives
proportional-spacing information. Bit 7 is
ignored. Bits 4 to 6 specify the offset to the first byte printed (Oto 7),
enabling leading spaces in the character to be ignored. Bits Oto 3 specify
the width of the character cell (maximum 11 dots). The character will
be followed by a man&tory blank dot column which is not included in
this width.
Characters defined by this command can be selected by < ESC> "%"

"I" 5, or < ESC > "l" 6. This command is
ignored when DIP switch 2-1 is ON.
