Font Handling and Enhancements

ESC [ p1; p2 SP B GSM (Graphic Size Modification): This sequence modifies the vertical <p1> and horizontal <p2> size of expanded and oversize characters. When using expanded characters, the currently selected font style is used. Oversize uses its own distinct font style.

Parameter values are percentages of the normal size character, so values over 100 are needed for expansion. Expansion factors are obtained by dividing values by 100.

Example: A parameter value of 526 would be divided by 100 to produce an expansion factor of 5 (5X expansion). Values less than 100 are treated as 1X expansion.
