TSN (Text String Number) The TSN parameter may point to any valid text string but it is a
good idea to always use "1" to make trouble-shooting formats easier. The text string that
the TSN is referencing must contain at least one character in order for a line to print
properly. "Line" was used in the example to clearly define the label format fields that contain
line values. However, it could have simply been one character such as a period "."
XB (X Beginning Coordinate) The X and Y coordinates determine the start of the line
draw.
YB (Y Beginning Coordinate) The X and Y coordinates determine the start of the line
draw.
CC (Character Count) This element is not used in line draw. No value is necessary,
however, a comma needs to be entered to acknowledge the position.
TCI (Text Conversion Identifier) The TCI is always set to a "6" for line draw.
