Absolute direction command
DIx, )[;]
Thiscommand specifies theslope ordirection at whichcharacters aredrawn,
independentof P1and P2 setting.
Atleast oneparameter must benon-zero, otherwisethe command isignored.
Relative direction command
DR run, ri~e [;]
This command established the run and rise of the text path relative to the
distance between pointsP1 and P2.
Define label terminator command
llT label terminator [,mode ;]
Thiscommand specifies the character to be used as the label terminator and
whether it isprinted.
Thecharacter definedwith thelabel ter}nincztc~rparameter(not<null>,<LF>,
<ESC> or <;>) is used as the terminator of strings in subsequent LB
commands.
Themode parameterindicates whattodo withlabel terminator,besidesusing
itas aterminator.
When the mode isO, thelabel terminator prints if it is aprintable character
aridperforms its function if it is acontrol code.
When the mode is 1,the label terminator does not print if it is aprinting
character and does notperform its function if it is acontrol code.
Define variable textpath command
DVpath [, line :]
Thiscommand specifies thetext pathfor subsequent labelsand the direction
of Line Feeds as either right, left, up, or down.
Thepath parameter specifies the location of each character with respect to
thepreceding character, relative to the labeling direction defined by the DI
orDR commands. The text path set by DV is not affected by changes in P1
and P2. 121
