Character Size, Text Effects and Character Styles
This part of the manual explains how to set the size of characters.
It also tells you how to assign text effects like underlining, shading, and box
printing, and how to select character styles like normal, outline, shadow, and
raised.
Character Size
There are two methods you can use to set the character size: AUTO and
MANUAL. With AUTO (Justification Mode), character size is set automatically
in accordance with the tape size you are using and the number of lines you are
printing. MANUAL lets you set the character size manually.
The following table shows how AUTO decides which character size to use.
