XES COMMAND LANGUAGE MODE

Syntax

ErDnc

 

 

r

The instruction for relative placement

 

 

D

A

character indicating the direction from the current

 

 

text position in which the text is to be placed:

 

 

 

u

Up

 

 

 

d

Down

 

 

 

l

Left

 

 

 

r

Right

 

 

n

The distance in pixels (or 1/300th inch) from

the

 

 

current text position to the new text position.

 

 

c

Any non-numeric character can be used to complete

 

 

this command.

 

 

Note: This is one of a few commands using a printable character

 

rather than a line end for completion. Do not use a line end.

 

Where to place it

Immediately

after the current text (that is, the text being used

as

 

a point of reference) and immediately before the text to be

 

affected.

 

 

 

More

For both landscape and portrait pages, it is possible to print text

 

off the left edge of the page. For example, entering Erl3000b will

 

not cause an error. However, any text after the command and

 

before a line end will print off the page.

 

Example

To place text 75 pixels to the left of the current position, enter

 

 

(Current text)Erl75e(New text)

 

As shown in figure 2-13, the final word of a sentence is placed 1500 pixels down from the current text position.
