This chapter discusses the formatting and positioning commands provided by

Horizontal Tab
The Horizontal Tab command allows the user to specify the current print
position relative to the left margin. When issued outside a pass, it sets the
default left margin for all subsequent Graphics Passes. When issued inside a
pass, it sets the left print position for that pass only.
The command syntax for a Horizontal Tab is:
Command ^Thhhd

increments of inches (0.25 cm) from 000 to 132

plus 2 dot columns to the right or the left margin:
