(2) When b7 or b3 is 1, the command becomes invalid.
(3) Except for HRI characters, this command is valid for all characters (ANK
characters and kanji characters).
(4) This command is ignored if the character height scaling factor or character
width scaling factor is outside the definition area.
(5) In standard mode, vertical is the paper feed direction. Horizontal is the
direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction. Therefore, when 90-
degree clockwise rotation of characters is specified, the relationship between
vertical and horizontal for the characters is reversed.
(6) In page mode, vertical is the vertical direction for the characters. Horizontal is
the horizontal direction for the characters.
