7265 Programmer’s Manual 72Copyright © 2004 TallyGenicom Chapter 4 ANSI OversizedLine Spacing and Intercharacter Spacing - 270oIf you print sideways text, then the vertical move that otherwise corresponded to a line feed nowsets the distance from the leading edge of one character cell to the leading edge of the nextcharacter cell (as you read the characters). A good starting value for this move is the charactercell width, which is 0.6 decipoints times the horizontal expansion factor.Strings of sideways characters propagate left-to-right across the portrait page. The printer makes“ line feeds” for you by inserting space between the trailing cell boundary of the previouscharacter and the leading cell boundary of the next character. This space is 0.36 decipoints timesthe vertical expansion factor, which is generous line spacing.If this line spacing is not satisfactory, then send sideways text one character at a time, precededby a locating command for each character. If you use the resident line spacing for sideways lines,then you will probably use a character array to rotate text. In that case, remember to fill your arraywith space characters (20 hex) before you copy strings into it.
