Using SGR to Select Character Attributes
You can send more than one parameter at a time, separating them
with semicolons. Do not mix standard and private parameters in one
command.
The printer uses the selected attribute across line and page
boundaries until the attribute is turned off or until a reset or power
down.
Lining Attributes
Underline, double underline, overline, and strike-through attributes
affect all printable characters in the data stream, including:
• Space (SP)
• Horizontal Position Relative (HPR)
• Horizontal Position Backward (HPB)
• Horizontal Position Absolute (HPA)
SGR Select Graphic Rendition - Selecting Attributes
Tabs are riot affected.
The thickness and positioning of the lining attributes depend on the
selected font.
The strike-through attribute marks characters for deletion- Legal
documents often use the strike-through attribute to indicate words
deleted from a previous version of the document. The printer draws a
line through the marked characters, in die same manner as
underline.
