(*1) Deciding the Line Breaking Point
A breaking point is judged from the following conditions. If the text does not fit into the following
conditions, automatic line feed is not applied.
1.
Text with multiple type characters
(Ex. No. 1 and 5)
Characters are classified into 3 types.
(a) Alphabet (a, b
, … X, Y, Z)
*
Strings of only upper-case letters are separated from lower-case letters strings and
handled as a different type.
(b) Number (0, 1,..8, 9)
(c) Punctuation Marks (Letters other than (a) and (b). Ex.: -, :, Space symbol, etc.
)
For alphabet and number characters, one of the breaking point choices is where the character
type changes.
As for punctuation marks, one of the breaking point choices is where the punctuation marks
change to other characters. (Punctuation marks are displayed at the end of the first line.)
2.
Capitalized text (Ex. No. 4 below)
The breaking point choice is the one in front of the upper-case character
Breaking point priority
When there are multiple breaking point choices, a point is decided according to following listed priority
order.
1.
Not breaking the word inside a pair of punctuation marks. (< >, ( ), [ ],
””
, etc.). (Ex. No. 8)
2.
To be able to display in big font (5 letters x 2 lines). (Ex. No. 7, 8)
3.
Break a line before/after a space symbol. (Ex. No. 2)
4.
Break a line around the center of a text. (Ex. No. 6)
(*2) Deciding the Font Size
The font size is decided automatically according to the following conditions. Large font is 9 x 15
pixels and small font is 6 x 8 pixels.
When both first and second lines are within 5 letters, two lines are displayed in large font. (Ex. No.
1-8).
When either first or second line is 6-7 letters (Ex. No. 9), two lines are displayed in small font.
Space mark is included in the letter number, but ignored for centering. Centering is done by
displayed letters and symbols only.
(If the beginning or last letter is a space mark, the space is ignored for centering.)
