Example: NEWP; PMZP 1. 5, 3. 5; PCZP 4. 5, 1. 5, 5. 5, 5. 5, 8, 3. 5; STRK; (4. 5, 1. 5) (8, 3. 5) Current position (1. 5, 3. 5) (5. 5, 5. 5) 187 PRESCRIBE Command Reference File !R!RES; UNIT C; PMZP 3, 6; PCZP 11, 3, 2, 2, 9, 6; STRK; PAGE; EXIT; Printout (2, 2) (11, 3) (9, 6) Current position (3, 6) 188 PDIR PDIR -- set Print DIRection Format PDIR angle; Parameter angle: angle in degrees; in 90° increments in a counterclockwise direction 0 = portrait 90 = landscape 180 = reverse portrait 270 = reverse landscape Function The PDIR command rotates the coordinates of the logical page by the degree represented by the value of the angle which orients the page in one of four directions. 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. 189 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'; 190 PDIR Printout 191 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. For example, PDRP 1, 2, 3, 4; is equivalent to PDRP 1, 2; PDRP 3, 4;.

Negative coordinates may draw the line extending outside the current page. The thickness of the line is designated by the SPD command.

A complete ellipse path will be defined if the parameters in brackets are omitted. An error will result and the command has no effect if the bounding box is specified as a straight line or a point. 196 PELP Current cursor position (x-end, y-end) (x-start, y-start) Bounding box (x-diagonal, y-diagonal) N: C: P: File !R!RES; UNIT C; MZP 0, 0; BOX 2, 3; NEWP; PMZP 0, 0; PELP 2, 3, 2, 0, 0, 0, N; STRK; MZP 5, 5; BOX 2, -3; NEWP; PMZP 5, 5; PELP 2, -3, 2, 0, 0, 0, N; STRK; MZP 10, 5; BOX -2, -3; NEWP; PMZP 10, 5; PELP -2, -3, -2, 0, 0, 0, N; STRK; MZP 15, 0; BOX -2, 3; NEWP; PMZP 15, 0; PELP -2, 3, -2, 0, 0, 0, N; STRK; RES; EXIT; 197 PRESCRIBE Command Reference PIE -- draw PIE chart Format PIE radius, starting-angle, slice-size, . . . ; Parameters radius: radius of the pie chart starting-angle: position of the first slice slice-size: relative sizes of the slices Function The PIE command is a standard mode graphics command which draws a pie chart centered at the current cursor position. The sizes of the slices may be specified using any convenient non-negative integers. [. . . ] The third line MZP command positions the first barcode at 1 inch each from the left and right paper edge limits. The fourth line XBCP 19 moves the cursor 1 inch from the left and 2 inches below the point where the first barcode started and prints the second barcode; then moves the cursor 1 inch from the left and 2 inches below the point where the second barcode started and prints the third barcode. : !R!RES; XBCP 17, "QualitySt"; MZP 1, 1; XBCP 19, 1, 2, 1, 2; XBAR; large data such as 3000 bytes;ENDB; EXIT; 386 XBCP 19 Printout 1 File 2 To print 4 30-column-by-20-row PDF symbols at specified locations in Macro PDF mode. In example below, the first line XBCP command resets all XBCP parameters to the defaults and selects the barcode type for PDF417 (though it is the only type currently available); the second line XBCP sets the number of rows in the barcode to 20 (rows); the third line XBCP sets the number of data codeword in the barcode to 30 (codewords).
