nZ is the character code of the first character defined and n2 is the

Each character is defined by three attribute bytes and data bytes.
The first attribute byte m0 specifies the left space, the second at-
tribute byte ml specifies the character width, and the third attribute
byte m2 specifies the right space.
The dot density is doubled in each direction, so each character
consists of 18 dots vertically and ml dots horizontally and requires
(ml x 3) data bytes. Since the vertical definition of the character is
18 dots, each byte represents a third of vertical definition.
For further details, please refer to chapter 8.

nZ and n2 give the number of bytes of character data that will follow.
mO is the character code of the first character defined, ml and m2 are
attribute bytes. dZ to dZZ are the character data.
The attribute byte ml indicates whether the character is an ascender
(not using the lowest of the nine vertical dots) or a descender (not
using the highest dot) and whether it has a downward extension to
12 dots.
