Comments:
Specifies the minimum increment which is used when specifying
parameters in other
comman
ds.
The value of nl determines the unit of
measure to be used; the value of n2 specifies the number of units that
will make up the minimum increment.
The following values can be used for nl :
0:
Minimum increment is specified in dots
(l/300
of an inch).
1:
Minimum increment is specified in
l/720
of an inch.
2: Minimum increment is specified in characters (character pitch
horizontally and line spacing vertically).
The following values can be used for
IQ:
When
nl=O
(dots), the smallest possible minimum increment is
l/300
inch
(n2=1);
n2 must be from 1 - 255.
When
nl=l
(l/720
of an inch), the smallest minimum increment is
3/720
inch; n2 must be from 3 - 255.
When
nl=2
(characters), the minimum increment is based on the current
character pitch (if proportional mode is selected, it is based on pica
pitch) and line spacing;
n2
must be 1.
The power on default minimum increment is
l/300
of an inch.
