It does not change the current page orientation. When the print direction is changed by the PDIR command, the logical page coordinate system is transformed so the margins maintain the same printable area (the area enclosed by the margins) as shown on next page. The current position uses the same coordinate values as the previous print direction; line-spacing, and the character-spacing of the current font are effected by the new print direction as are the raster and pattern graphics. Scalable fonts should be used for printed text in different page directions. The PDIR command rotates only the coordinates of the logical page on the current page orientation and does not affect the current page orientation. A bitmap font prints text according to the current page orientation (it adheres to the current font mode). The PDIR command does not cause a page break, so you can print text in four different directions on the same page as shown in the sample file on the next page. 183 PRESCRIBE Command Reference Portrait (PDIR 0;) Landscape (PDIR 90;) Reverse Landscape (PDIR 270;) Reverse Portrait (PDIR 180;) File !R!RES; UNIT P; SFNT 'Helvetica', 8; UNIT C; MZP 10, 12; SPD . 144; CIR . 075; PDIR PDIR PDIR PDIR PAGE; EXIT; 270; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 180; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 90; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 0; TEXT ' ENDLESS VARIETY AND VERSATILITY'; 184 PDIR Printout 185 PRESCRIBE Command Reference PDRP -- Format in Path, Draw to Relative Position PDRP x-coordinate, y-coordinate, . . . ; Parameters x-coordinate, y-coordinate: coordinates as measured from the current cursor position Function The PDRP command adds a line to the current path from the current cursor position to a specified relative position, measured in the units designated by the UNIT command. The cursor moves to the specified coordinates. The coordinates may be positive or negative. Negative coordinates may draw the line extending outside the current page. The thickness of the line is designated by the SPD command. Multiple pairs of coordinates may be specified. The printer then draws a connected series of line segments, proceeding from one point to the next. For example, PDRP 1, 2, 3, 4; is equivalent to PDRP 1, 2; PDRP 3, 4;.

The cursor moves to the specified coordinates. The coordinates may be positive or negative. [. . . ] For example, F-1 and GRY-2 are valid buffer names. As the above Format instruction implies, the XBUF command sequence can have two other formats implementing the different functions as follows: XBUF buffer-name, ; data-string;ENDB; Note the comma ( , ) placed between the buffer-name and ";". As is the case of XBAR, this format allows that data-length can be omitted, 0, negative value, or non integer, the comma after buffer-name must be left in place, however. Then data-string is counted all characters until the program encounters ";ENDB;". [. . . ]
