Fine line spacing
For graphics
or special effects, use the fine lines per inch commands,
which change the spacing
in multiples of 1/72 inch or 1/216 inch.
This does
not affect the height of characters; it changes only the
spacing between the lines. For example, if you choose a fine lines
per inch of 72/72 inch, there is 1 inch between the bottom of one
line anG. the bottom of the next.
To set lines
per inch in multiples of 1/72 inch, first use:
Fine Line Spacing Decimal Hex. ASCII Comp.
Set LPI in multiples of I /72 in. 27 65 n 1641 n
ESC An
I'F
The last code "n" is the multiple you require and is a number with
a decimal value greater than 1 and less than 85.
For the Epson Mode that is all you need to do. For the IBM modes
you must also activate the lines per inch set using:
fine Line Spacing Decimal Hex. ASCII Comp.

This command activates the fine lines per inch set by the
CHR$(27);"A";CHR$(1-85) command. You can use these two
commands to to return to 6 LPI by having CHR$(1-85) equal 12.
(12/72 inch equals 1 I 6 inch line spacing.)

·~efault spacing in the current menu is activated.
