- 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.]
