Forms Layout

Forms Layout allows you to fill in pre-printed forms easily and
automatically. An unlimited number of forms can be stored in text
memory with a maximum of 99 stops each. An asterisk is entered

before the text name for easy recognition of a form in text mem­
ory. CODE + EXPR creates the asterisk and it must be entered
before typing the text name.

When setting up the form, you can assign a prompt (30 characters)

which will display when filling in the form or you can instruct the
typewriter to automatically insert a phrase at a stop location. The
prompts you assign will assist you when printing the form. Auto­
matic phrase insertion allows you to store constant text which

eliminates repetitive typing. If you do not assign a prompt or store
constant text, the screen will simply prompt “INSERT” when that
stop is reached.

When printing a form, the PRINT key is used to advance the
printer to each programmed stop. The prompt you assigned will
be displayed and you may manually enter the required text or
recall it from phrase memory. If you instruct the typewriter to print
a phrase, the printer will automatically advance to the next pro­

grammed stop.

An INDENT (temporary left margin) is automatically set at each

stop; therefore, if more than one line of information is entered, it
will automatically be aligned. Forms Layout will move to the exact
stop position you set regardless of the number of lines entered at
each stop.

When you are printing a form, the typewriter also allows you to
access tabs which were set on the ruler before the form stops were

entered. To do this, simply press TAB, or DEC TAB if you wish

to align the numbers at the decimal point.
