Item Minimum limitation Maximum limitation
Length of text 1 (may be blank) 203

Dashed and Dotted Lines
If the length of a line is too small as compared with the line width, dashed and
dotted lines are printed as solid lines.
The minimum length of this limitation depends on the line width.
Line Width and Page Size
If a line or a box is near the edge of the page and the line width is too big, some
portion of the line may exceed the page size although the line or box element is
inside.
In this case, no lines are printed for that element and an error message is
displayed.
Element Position
If you specify the page size in inches or centimeters and specify an element
position in inches or centimeters, you may not be allowed to specify the position,
although the position is inside the page size.
This can occur at positions near the right edge or bottom of the page. The
position, specified in inches or centimeters, must be inside the page when it is
expressed in rows and columns. For example:
Characters per line ............... 1ð
Lines per inches ................. 6
Page width ........................ 5.15 inches
(51 columns)
height ....................... 6.1 inches
(36 lines)
Position Across ................... 5.12 inches is not allowed since
it will be 52nd column.
Down ..................... 6.ð5 inches is not allowed since
it will be 37th line.
When you use a 300-pel printer to print a text element whose character size is not
*DEFAULT, it may not print when the position of the text element is too close to the
bottom of the page. In such cases, the text element should be moved higher in the
page or the height of the page size should be increased.
