LQLANDS.EXE
is a simple print driver that will print an ASCII
document along the long side of the page, in what is called
'landscape' as opposed to ordinary 'portrait' printing. It is
to be used in conjunction with one of the Right Angle fonts of
which there currently are two: RTANGLE.LQP and RTCONDP.LQP
LQLANDS.EXE is a command line program. Just enter LQLANDS
followed by the name of file to print: A>LQLANDS filename
There are four optional switches:
/Sn : sets space between lines (bottom of one, top of other)
n=n/360ths of inch with proportional font,
n=n/180th with NLQ. Default value is n=5.
/Ln : sets spacing between letters, n=n/180th of inch
Default value is n=18.
/Mn : sets left margin, n=n/6th of inch, Default n=6.
/Pn : sets lines per page. Default n=54
If you chose to create a landscape font using the right angle
move in the LQMATRIX editor make absolutely sure that each
character (including space ASCII 32) is set at the same width.
This is a brand new program and is very much "bare bones." If
you like it, I shall be happy to follow suggestions for making
it more powerful. [By the way, since the printer thinks that it
is printing in 'portrait' you will notice some odd results if
you download LQ's /I, italic switch.]
