If you are measuring the grid in cpi and lpi units, the origin of the “A”
character cell is located two lines down and one character width to
the right of the form origin. At 10 cpi and 6 lpi, the “A” is .33 inch down
from the form origin and .10 inch to the right.
Negative coordinates Negative x and y values also may be used to place form elements
above and or to the left of the form origin, as long as the values are
within system page boundaries.
UNIT value The unit value of the GRID command specifies the unit of
measurement FDL commands use to position form elements on the
page. Optionally, you can select a predefined format that
automatically provides grid unit values. Individual FDL commands
may override GRID unit values.
