T7. gap	Number of dots between characters (203 dots per inch).
	Range: 0 - 99.
	NOTE: For monospaced fonts, the additional spacing is
		added to the existing inter-character gap. This is
		also true for proportionally spaced fonts, but
		remember that the inter-character gap varies with
		character combinations.
	Any number other than 0 or the default number affects your
	field width. Default spacing:
	Standard		3 dots
	Reduced		1 dot
	Bold		3 dots
	OCRA-like		3 dots
	HR1		3 dots
	HR2		2 dots
	HR1 and HR2 are only used with the UPC bar code family and
	must be numeric.
T8. font	Style of font. Options:
	1	Standard	10	CG Triumvirate Bold
	2	Reduced	11	CG Triumvirate
	3	Bold	15	7 pt. CG Triumvirate
	4	OCRA-like	16	9 pt. CG Triumvirate
	5	HR1	17	11 pt. CG Triumvirate
	6	HR2	18	15 pt. CG Triumvirate
	Fonts 5 and 6 are for numeric data only.
	Fonts 15 through 18 are only for 300 dpi.
T9. hgt mag	Height magnifier, 1		7 (times- for bitmapped fonts).
T10. wid mag	Width magnifier, 1 - 7 (times). Proportionally spaced fonts do
	not have a set width. To estimate the size of your field, use

the letter "W" for the widest field or an "L" for an average width field. Find your selected font and the desired width in Appendix B, "Fonts."
