COMMAND EXAMPLES

Figure G-14.Character block orientations for portrait and landscape pages

This character indicates the positioning origin of the text

block.

If the font and page have the same orientation, letters appear upright. They appear sideways or upside down if orientations differ. Text is aligned horizontally or vertically relative to page orientation, not relative to the font.

Portrait and inverse portrait fonts may be used with landscape page orientation (for example, to insert labels or captions). Likewise, landscape and inverse landscape fonts may be used with portrait page orientation. Portrait, landscape, inverse portrait, and inverse landscape fonts are listed in the Xerox Laser Printing Systems Standard Font Library Font User Guide.
