ShowEPS (procedure)
Displays an EPS image resource.
Syntax
showeps( resname, width, height )
Argument
resname — String value containing either the name of the EPS resource within the document, or the path
to an EPS file .
width, height — Measure values specifying the width/height, in inches, the EPS occupies when it displays.
Specifying a value of zero for one but not both of the two dimensions scales the EPS to fit the non-zero
dimension. Specifying both a width and a height scales the EPS to the best fit possible with that width and
height, while maintaining its aspect ratio. Specifying both a width and a height of zero displays the EPS at
its default resolution.
Code Sample Example
This example displays the EPS image ‘my_eps’, scaling it as necessary to fit a width of 4.5 inches.
Example
showeps('my_eps', 4.5, 0)
ShowLeftRight (procedure)
Displays a string of characters, in inches, using a specified width.
Syntax
showleftright( text, width )
Arguments
text — String value to be displayed.
width — Measure value representing the amount of horizontal space to use for displaying the string.
showleftright adjusts the amount of spaces between characters to insure the string fits exactly within the
specified width.
