Highlighting text
The following print functions of the document printer can be influenced by corre-
sponding ESC sequences:
– Double impact print/ bold print
– Underlining
– Superscript/ subscript
– Double Superscript
Double impact print / bold print
With double impact print (= vertical bold print) the print head goes over each line
twice. The paper is transported 1/180 inch after the first print and the same cha-
racters are printed again vertically and slightly displaced.
With bold print (also called horizontal bold print) each dot of a character is printed
twice, whereby the second dot is displaced slightly to the right of the first dot prin-
ted.
In double impact print, the space between the dots is filled up, in (horizontal) bold
print, the lines of a character are intensified. Bold and double impact print can be
combined so that particularly bold characters result.
Example:
Underlining
Certain parts of a text can be highlighted by switching the underlining mode on
and off.
