PEN SETTINGS
• Pen size
Enter the pen size directly in the first column under "Size" using
the keyboard. The maximum values that you can enter depend
on the size unit, which you set in the configuration program. The
current valid size unit is given in the status bar at the lower edge
of the screen.
If you want to "Switch off" a pen, you can enter the pen widths
as "0"or set the pen color as "White".
• Pen colors
Select the pen color in the second column under "Color". Click
on the arrow to the right of the color setting and drag the
mouse to the desired color. If you want to "Switch off" a pen, you
can enter the pen color as "White" or the pen widths as "0".
The individual pen color should only be considered as being a
"symbolic equivalent" for a gray scale value. Each color is
equivalent to a %-value of gray: thus e.g. "yellow" could be rep-
resented by 10 %-Gray, "red" with 50 % gray and "blue" with 80
%- gray etc. You can set which gray scale a color represents on
the "Color" tab.
If the plotter is definitely to use the pen attributes from the en-
try's corresponding SSL file, you must activate the "File" field on
the "General" tab as the pen and/or color source.
• Gray (%)
The gray scale can only be adjusted if you have chosen "Gray"
as the color. The changes are also made directly using the key-
board.
• Set all
With "Set all" the program offers you a comfortable way of si-
multaneously setting the attributes for all 256 pens. First set the
pen widths, the pen color and the gray scale and then click once
on "Set all":
