Epson FX-80, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 88 / 376

The FX-80, on the other hand, can perform a reverse line feed, and
it uses this capability to place the underline one row lower than any
text dot. To do this, the FX-80 prints the text to be underlined, moves
the print head down the paper one row’s worth to print the underline,
then moves the print head back up to the original text line.

UNDERLINING IS SIMPLEggggg TO TURN ON/OFF
On the FX-80, the underlining does occur below the descenders of
the gs.
Script Modes: Super and Sub
Print pitches, such as Pica, Elite, and Compressed, affect the width
of characters: both Elite and Compressed Modes may be seen as
squeezing Pica characters
horizontally.
FX printers can also squeeze a
character vertically-to about half its normal height. These short
characters are called Script characters (not to be confused with cal-
ligraphic manuscript lettering). Because the Script characters are so
short, they can be placed high or low on the line; thus you can use
them for either SUPERscripts or SUBscripts.
This command turns Superscripting on:
LPRINT CHR$(27)"S0"
This one turns Subscripting on:
LPRINT CHR$(27)"Sl"
Try this program to see both kinds of Script characters:
20 LPRINT CHR$(27)"S0SUPER";

LPRINT CHR$(27)"TSCRIPT AND";

LPRINT CHR$(27)"S1 SUB";

LPRINT "CAN EVEN GO ON THE SAME LINE"
