Discussion The OCR-A and OCR-B fonts cannot be printed in double high.

NOTE: It is recommended to use double Line Feeds and Carriage Returns when double-high character printing is on (after an SFCC w control code has been sent), or else the printer will overstrike text that has already printed.

If Superscript/Subscript (SFCC S) is combined with Double High printing, only Double High printing will occur.

Example The following sample illustrates double-high character printing.
