Forms
A form can be seen as a regular page for:
• coordinate system
• dot-/scan-addresses
• landscape/portrait.
The page-terms
• hpos/vpos
• duplex
• shift
are not applicable.
During printout the coordinate-system of a form and a page must coincide with their x- and
y-axis and their origin.
The length of the x-axis is defined in the Header-block+16 (2 Bytes), the length of the y-axis
is defined in the Header-block+18 (2 Bytes).
