The vertical definition of the characters is 16 dots in superscript/subscript modes,
and 24 in all others. Each byte therefore represents half of the vertical definition of
a character column in superscript/subscript mode, and a third of the vertical
definition in other modes. If cn> bytes are required for a normal character, the
arrangement of these bytes is as follows (where the byte numbers are represented by
decimal numbers, starting at 0), and the total width of the character has been defined
by the parameter <al>:

In the case of a superscript/subscript character, the width has also been defmed by
cur>, but only two bytes are required per vertical column, so the arrangement is as
follows:
