*LINES:
Lhhhvvv
Where: L = “L” and specifies line drawing,
hhh = horizontal width of line,
vvv = vertical height of line.
** LINES:
lhhhhvvvv
Where: l = “l” and specifies line drawing,
hhhh = horizontal width of line,
vvvv = vertical height of line.
*** BOXES:
Bhhhvvvbbbsss
Where: B = “B” and specifies box drawing,
hhh = horizontal width of box,
vvv = vertical height of box,
bbb = thickness of bottom and top,
sss = thickness of sides.
**** BOXES:
bhhhhvvvvbbbbssss
Where: b = “b” specifies box drawing,
hhhh = horizontal width of box,
vvvv = vertical height of box,
bbbb = thickness of bottom and top box edges,
ssss = thickness of sides of box.
Note: Lines are sometimes better understood as filled in boxes, while boxes are hollow.
Polygons
Polygons are created by defining the positions of the corners, specifying a number of data
points that represent the vertices of the object, which can range from a simple line (two points),
or a triangle (three points), to any free-form outline. Polygons may be filled with a variety of
different patterns. All row/column specifiers are interpreted as inches/100 or millimeters/10
depending on the printer mode, (see <STX>m).
Record structure for a polygon (spaces have been added for readability):
1 X 11 ppp rrrr cccc P ppp bbbb rrrr cccc rrrr cccc … <CR>

Note: The points must be specified in the order to be drawn; the last point specified is
automatically connected to the first point to close the polygon. If only two points are
specified, a single line will be drawn. See Label-Formatting Command A.
