field and does not change the rotation. In practice, the field rotates around its origin (generally the
lower left corner), as appears in fig. 4.
fig. 4 – Rotation of a field positioned with the ^FT command
x is a whole number from 0 20 to 9999 21 and is the horizontal position along the x axis (see fig. 2 on
page 9), expressed in dots 22 .
y is a whole number from 0 23 to 9999 24 and is the vertical position along the y axis, expressed in
dots.
The origin of the field, whose coordinates are set by the parameters x and y, varies according to its
type.
In text fields, the origin is located at the intersection of the line on which the characters are aligned
and the vertical line with which the first character is aligned (in the case of horizontal writing, this is
the lower left corner).
If the coordinates are omitted (even just one of these), the coordinates of the last field entered are
used as if the label image were virtually shifted with a cursor. This is how the fields can be more
easily positioned with respect to one of them: by changing the coordinates of the reference field, all
the other fields are moved while preserving their relative position with respect to the first field.
In the bar-code fields, the origin is the base of the bar-code, even when there is a human-readable
field beneath them or when the bar-code provides for a line above and below it.
The origin of the graphic box fields is the lower left corner.
The origin of the images is the lower left corner of the rectangle in which the graphic image is
inserted.
