[Description]
Defines user-defined characters.
•
y
specifies the number of bytes in the vertical direction
•
c1
specifies the beginning character code for the definition, and
c2
specifies the final code
•
x
specifies the number of dots in the horizontal direction
•
d
specifies the defined character data pattern
[Notes] ■ Consecutive character codes for multiple characters can be defined in one definition.
■ "
d
" is definition data that indicates the pattern for "
x
" dots in the horizontal direction, starting from the
left edge. If "
x
" does not satisfy dots in the character configuration pattern (9 dots), the remaining dots
on the right are spaces.
■ In the definition data, a "1" represents a dot that is to be printed, and a "0" represents a dot that is not to
be printed.
■ Only the most significant bit of the second data byte in the vertical direction can be printed.
■ Independent user-defined character definitions are possible for the fonts if the character pattern is
different in the international character sets.
