increase character spacing Mode ASCII Decimal Hexadecimal
Std. 1 <ESC> “” n 1 27 32 n IlB 20 n
Increases the space between characters by n/240 inches, where n is a
number from 0 to 127. Used in microjustification.
Select double or quadruple size Mode ASCII Decimal Hexadecimal
Both <ESC> “h” n 27 104 n 1B 68 n
Selects the size of subsequent characters as shown below. Extra-high
characters align along the cap-line of normal characters, with the base
line temporarily moving down. Line spacing is temporarily doubled when
n = 1, 5 or 6 and quadrupled when n = 2. To print correctly when n
= 3,4,5 or 6, set the line spacing to 24/2 16 (l/9) of an inch with < ESC >
“3” < 24 > , and print the same characters twice, upper half on one line,
lower half on the next. For accurate alignment of the two halves, select
unidirectional printing with < ESC > “U” < 1 > .

Both - <ESC> ‘*W” Cl> 27 119 1 1B 77 01
Prints subsequent characters at double height without moving the base
line, and without changing the line spacing. Temporarily cancels
super/subscript and condensed printing modes.
Return to normal height Mode ASCII Decimal Hexadecimal
<ESC’ “W” “0” 27 119 48 IB 77 30

Terminates double-height printing and prints subsequent characters at
normal height. Resumes super/subscript and condensed printing if these
modes were in effect before double height was selected.
