T HE ABPRINT.INI INITIALIZATION FILE
The initialization file contains information which is necessary for the cor-
rect running of the program. Most of the parameters are automatically
updated by the settings in AB-Print.
The following parameters can be only adjusted in the initialization file. To
do this, open the file with the help of a text editor (e.g. MS Notepad, note-
pad.exe).
When you open, save, print, etc., data from various directories is used. You
can adjust the path details by means of the following parameters:
9800 Length of marker (µm) dim. 7
249000 Total length of Marker Card (µm) dim. 8
12 No. of rows per Marker Card
16744192 Decimal value of a color. This is identical with the color of
the underlay which is to be used when plotting. This decimal
value is calculated from the color proportions of the primary
colours (red/green/blue).
163 500 Article code for marker type
500 Y-offset from reference point. Height difference to set
reference point. A negative value shifts the reference point
upwards, a positive value shifts it downwards.
3 Marker type:
1 = Wire marker
2 = Device marker
3 = Terminal marker
... Remarks (e.g. plug-in marker for transparent sleeve)

Align project fields in Y-direction
Specify font size for project fields (in points)
