Image Height
Check the image height. Does the dialogue of a movie have the correct height? Is it

front spikes will lower the image height. Where possible, we recommend that you add or
remove a spacer to get the correct image height. This will allow the PDC to be reset using
the tables in Section 10.

reveals itself as a slight nasal sound
in the voice. If you notice this in the
