Purpose

Selects elongated (double high) character printing for one line only. ElonF

 

gated characters are approximately double height but standard width.

Comment

The elongated character control code is a line-by-line print attribute; when

 

the control code is received, one entire line of elongated characters is printed

 

and then automatically reset.

 

In P-Series protocol, elongated characters are formed by printing twice the

 

number of dot rows except for the top and bottom rows. In Serial Matrix proF

 

tocol, elongated characters are formed by printing twice the number of dot

 

rows, including the top and bottom rows.

 

When configured for double high print, P-Series control code BS (Hex 08)

 

also selects elongated character printing for a single line.

 

When using this feature with relative line slewing, the paper will be moved n +

 

1 lines rather than n lines. Refer to the Vertical Format Units chapter for

 

more information on relative line slewing. When using small line spacing and

 

the lines overlap, an unexpected print format may result.

Example

The following sample program illustrates elongated character printing.
