IGP/PGL Emulation
The PGL emulation is the software based Intelligent Graphics Processor 
(IGP) for the line matrix family of printers. It is based upon, and is compatible 
with, the IGP-100/200/400 board using the PGL. The IGP graphics 
processing features are detailed below.
Features
On-Line Form and Label Generation makes it easy to create forms or labels 
with a “preprinted” look for each application. IGP programs control all graphic 
functions, dramatically reducing host computer programming and processing 
time.
Graphic capabilities include boxes, vertical and horizontal lines with user-
selectable thickness, logos, and special alphanumeric print features. Forms 
and graphic designs can be duplicated horizontally and vertically.
Alphanumeric data can appear as prepositioned “fixed” information (entered 
when the form is created), be overlayed onto the form (positioned in a specific 
location after the form is created), or can be dynamically merged with the 
form.
Selectable Barcodes provide you with the appropriate barcode for your 
application using standard wide-to-narrow ratios. A wide selection of 
barcodes is available: Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5, UPC-A, UPC-E, MSI A 
through D, Code 128 Subset A, B, and C, EAN/UCC-128, EAN 8, EAN 13, 
POSTNET, PostBar, Royal Mail, and PDF417. UPC and EAN barcodes can 
specify add-on data.
Expanded and Compressed Character Print attract attention where 
needed. Alphanumeric height and width are controlled independently for a 
wide range of character sizes up to 113 times the standard character size (up 
to 11.3 inches wide and tall). Compressed print sizes of 10, 12, 13, 15, 17, 
and 20 characters per inch (cpi) are available.
Logos are created using alphanumeric commands and add many print and 
shading features for a “customized” appearance to forms, reports, and labels.
Rotated Alphanumerics permit new concepts in form design. Normal, 
expanded, and compressed character strings can be rotated 90 degrees 
clockwise or counterclockwise, or they can be printed upside down.
Reversed Print permits highlighting and contrasting by printing white 
characters on a dark background.
Automatic Increment/Decrement Capability allows batch form processing. 
Individual alphabetic, numeric, and barcode data fields can be identified and 
automatically incremented or decremented by any amount, beginning from a 
specified reference point.
Scaling Capability permits graphic elements, such as corners or boxes, to 
retain their physical shapes and sizes when printed in a horizontal and vertical 
density other than the base density of 60 x 72 dpi.
Multinational Character Sets provide many international character sets, 
each 96 characters in length. This feature also allows you to create your own 
character sets using characters defined and stored in memory.
