The largest font on the line determines spacing (to
avoid overstriking the previous line).

When 0.5 line spacing is used, the previous line may
be overstruck.

This command adjusts the amount of space between lines of text, where #

is a numeral expressed in 1/300". Unlike “Line Spacing,” in which the

amount of space between lines is based upon the font size, “Line Spacing

Absolute” sets line spacing pixel by pixel. The command takes effect on

the line after which it occurs.

Note: The printer will always print at least one line of text per page

regardless of the value of this parameter.

This command adjusts the amount of space between characters of text,

where # is a numeral expressed in 1/300", and where C is the character to

be spaced. Normally, the amount of space between characters is based upon

the font. “Character Spacing Absolute” sets character kerning pixel by

pixel.

For example, to space the characters A, B and C 0.75" apart from one

another on a line, enter:

s

zs225ABC

d

This command will remain in effect until another

s

zs#C

d

command

is entered. To return to font-based spacing, enter any negative number for

the # parameter, or use

(Reset).
