4–37Commands
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)
