SOFTWARE MANUAL C32
Both methods affect all subsequent text characters. With both methods it is ensured that the base lines of all characters
of a text line are positioned on a uniform height. The position of the baseline in the total height of a text character is also
stored in the font. If both methods are used in combination, the scales act multiplicatively. In this way it is e.g. possible to
print a text with double-width characters, and to ensure uniform font height regardless of the font. For reasons of clarity,
the scaling factor for the height should be set to 1, so that the height is equal to the font size.
An isolated ScT command globally changes the scaling for the printer. A chained command is revoked after EoT.
Technical note:
It is necessary that the resulting scaling can be displayed internally as a fraction with numerator and denominator of [1, 255]. Scaling
factors can thus be specified in 255
th
part increments of 1/255 up to maximum 255. If necessary, the system rounds suitably or limits
the value, in order to meet the threshold.
14.2.2.1 SCALE TEXT CHARACTERS
[Command identifier]
ScalT (short form ScT)
[1. Parameter]
Scale width: rational number
[2. Parameter]
Scale height (optional): rational number
If no value is indicated, width and heigt value will be the same.
[Examples]
Text in double width and half height
[GeBE#ScT2:1/2]
Font 8 in size Pt16 with double width
[GeBE #F8:16 #ScT 2:1]
Text in 1.5-fold width and height
[GeBE#ScT 1.5]
