Alignment

Once the insertion point is specified, you must also decided which

part of the object should match the insertion point. For example, a

text field forms a rectangle. There are 8 anchor points along the

borders and one in the centre. The anchor points are numbered 1–

9 and specified by means of an ALIGN statement. By specifying

e.g. ALIGN 1, you will place the lower left corner of the text field

at the insertion point specified by PRPOS.

The illustration below shows the anchor points for the various types

of fields. Refer to the Intermec Fingerprint 6.13 Reference Manual,

ALIGN statement for detailed information on the anchor points of

such bar codes, where the interpretation is an integrated part of the

bar code pattern, e.g. EAN and UPC codes.
