Printronix ThermaLine Series manual Logo Exercise

Logo Exercise

In this exercise, you will generate a logo. The following sample uses a hand logo. Using dot scaling (discussed in detail on page 4±88) on an 8±1/2 x 11±inch form, a hand was drawn on a grid, with each dot tabulated by row and column position. If a grid coordinate occupies half or more of a dot position, include that position in your logo program. (Grid samples are located in Appendix B.)

Each dot position used must be identified individually. However, you can use a hyphen between the starting and ending columns to indicate a section of consecutive dots. For example, this hand logo requires dots in row 1, columns 40±42, shown in Figure 6±10. A sequential row order is not required.

A logo is created and stored as an element in the definition of a form. For example, to use a logo, first design it in the Create Logo mode; then add it to a form in the Create Form mode; then execute the form (with the logo) in the Execute Form mode. The following logo exercise includes all three of these steps.
