Commands

NOTE: If the SCALE;DOT command is used to specify the dot resolution,

the line thickness will be specified in that dot scale, rather than as

the standard 1/72” line.

EC

Defines the ending column of the corner. Enter a value

ranging from column 2 through the last column of the

form. The ending column must be greater than the

starting column. Character column or dot column is

specified based on the Scale command (page 4–88), or

use the CP.DP format (page 4–7).

VL

Defines the length of the vertical arm (including the

line thickness) of each corner in the set. Enter a value

of 1 or greater specified in character or dot rows based

on the Scale command (page 4–88), or use the CP.DP

format (page 4–7).

HL

Defines the length of the horizontal arm (including the

line thickness) of each corner in the set. Enter a value

of 1 or greater specified in character or dot columns

based on the Scale command (page 4–88), or use the

CP.DP format (page 4–7).

STOP

Stop indicates the end of the CORNER command;

enter STOP, and the IGP/PGL will wait for a new

command. If not entered, the IGP/PGL will wait for

another set of Corner command parameters.

Example

The following program specifies a corner set as shown in Figure 4–5. To

illustrate positioning, the starting row and column are indicated on the

example but do not necessarily reflect actual location on the page. (Note the

position of the ending row and ending column; they do not include the line

thickness.)

CORNER

5;27;27;42;55;4;6

(Each corner in the set is 5 dot rows thick)

STOP

(4 character rows high, 6 character columns wide)
