[. . . ] Coordinates and radius are measured in the units designated by the UNIT command; the starting and ending angles are measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis. To draw a simple arc as specified by the parameters, the cursor must be moved to the beginning of the arc by using the PMRA command. (See the example below. ) The arc is drawn at the starting angle through the ending angle in counterclockwise direction only. After the path is stroked, the cursor remains at the ending angle of the arc.

The pattern-number should be any number between 1 through 60 if a resident pattern is selected. A full list of the printer's resident patterns appear on the following page. Pattern numbers 100 through 105 are reserved for selecting the expanded patterns and can be generated by using the XPAT command. If you specify a pattern number between 100 and 105 when no expanded patterns are defined, the printer selects the No. Variable resolution support is valid for 600 dpi and 1200 dpi models only. 177 PRESCRIBE Command Reference Resident Fill Patterns (300 dpi) 178 PCRP PCRP -- Format in Path, Curve to Relative Position PCRP x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3; Parameters x1, y1: coordinates of the first control point as measured from the current cursor position x2, y2: coordinates of the second control point as measured from the current cursor position x3, y3: coordinates of the end point as measured from the current cursor position Function The PCRP command adds a Bézier curve segment to the path, starting from the current cursor point, referred to as current position as shown at right, through two control points of (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), and ending at (x3, y3).

When the print direction is changed by the PDIR command, the logical page coordinate system is transformed so the margins maintain the same printable area (the area enclosed by the margins) as shown on next page. The current position uses the same coordinate values as the previous print direction; line-spacing, and the character-spacing of the current font are effected by the new print direction as are the raster and pattern graphics. Scalable fonts should be used for printed text in different page directions. The PDIR command rotates only the coordinates of the logical page on the current page orientation and does not affect the current page orientation. A bitmap font prints text according to the current page orientation (it adheres to the current font mode). The PDIR command does not cause a page break, so you can print text in four different directions on the same page as shown in the sample file on the next page. 183 PRESCRIBE Command Reference Portrait (PDIR 0;) Landscape (PDIR 90;) Reverse Landscape (PDIR 270;) Reverse Portrait (PDIR 180;) File !R!RES; UNIT P; SFNT 'Helvetica', 8; UNIT C; MZP 10, 12; SPD . 144; CIR . 075; PDIR PDIR PDIR PDIR PAGE; EXIT; 270; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 180; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 90; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 0; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 184 PDIR Printout 185 PRESCRIBE Command Reference PDRP -- Format in Path, Draw to Relative Position PDRP x-coordinate, y-coordinate, . . . ; Parameters x-coordinate, y-coordinate: coordinates as measured from the current cursor position Function The PDRP command adds a line to the current path from the current cursor position to a specified relative position, measured in the units designated by the UNIT command. Negative coordinates may draw the line extending outside the current page. The printer then draws a connected series of line segments, proceeding from one point to the next. [. . . ] In the example below, the fourth line XBCP 19 has no coordinating parameters specified. This allows the first segment barcode of the ensuing PDF data to be positioned at the current cursor position and the remaining data on the subsequent pages if there are data beyond the first page. The combinations of MZP and ENDB allow the second and third PDF barcodes printed at the specific coordinates on the following page. : !R!RES; XBCP 0, 1; XBCP 17, "TrnOvr0"; XBCP 19; XBAR; large data such as 3000 bytes;ENDB; PAGE; MZP 1, 2; ENDB; MZP 4, 4; ENDB; EXIT; 369 PRESCRIBE Command Reference Printout 3 First page Second page 370 XBUF XBUF -- define a BUFfer name Format XBUF buffer-name[, [data-length]]; data-string;ENDB; Parameters buffer-name: name of the buffer that contains XBAR data data-length: length of data in bytes, terminated with a semicolon data-string: data to be encoded, terminated with a semicolon immediately followed by an ENDB command (256 international characters or binary data) Function The XBUF command defines/undefines a buffer that contains actual data for the two dimensional barcodes.
