Horizontal Positioning
The display indicates the left margin and all other horizontal distances in terms of
columns. On paper, however, the width of these columns depends on the selected
pitch. This word processor supports three character widths;
Name Character Spacing
Pica 10 characters per inch (cpi)
Elite 12 cpi
Micron 15 cpi
Screen Width vs. Paper Width
The distance between the left and right margins must be smaller than the paper
width. Suppose your paper is 8,5 inches wide and you are using Pica pitch (10 cpi).
You can fit a maximum of 85 characters per line. The distance between margins
should therefore be smaller than 85 columns on the screen (check the
col
indicator
on the status line). The following table indicates the maximum distance between
margins for letter-size paper:
Width Maximum Characters Between Margins
Letter Size
8.5 inch
10 (Pica) 12 (Elite) 15 (Micron)
85 102 127
Changing the Pitch

The pitch is automatically set to 10 when the power is turned on. Pressing CODE +
PITCH will cycle the PITCH indicator through the following values:
PITCH: 10 12 15 10
When the pitch is changed, a format symbol f appears in the dead column of the
first line of that paragraph. The text is automatically reformatted down from the format
symbol.
