4.3.5 Example: Page
OK, let’s have ago at formatting a page. The picture of the page we want is
just below. The actual width of the text on the page depends on which font
we use. Let’splan on using our 16.66-pitchLinePrinter fontateight linesper
inch.

As it prints, we also want to permit the occasional one-line footnote below
the normal bottom margin. And when we’re finished printing, let’s reset the
side margins so we can switch to our usual font width.
Here are the commands that will produce this format for us:
<ESC> &tl 12P
<ESC> &a 10~70M
<ESC> &/8e lOOfOL
(We’ll send our page here.)
