XPS Card Printer Driver User’s Guide 115
Embosser Escape
Use an embosser escape to specify the font and position of embossed and indented data. An
embosser escape is made up of the following elements:
Escape preamble—Tells the Card Printer Driver that the text characters following are part of
an embosser escape and not text for rendering on the card.
Embosser font number—The font number CE systems use to specify the emboss or indent
character set, the front or back of the card, and in some cases the supply to use.
Emboss/Indent position—Two values that specify the starting location of the emboss/indent
operation.
Emboss data—The text to be embossed or indented at a given location using the font
number specified.
Embosser Escape Syntax
The embosser escape syntax is: ~EM%font#;horz_offset;vert_offset;data
Use a semicolon (;) character to separate embosser escape elements.
Escape Preamble
In the preamble, the characters ~EM% identify the beginning of an emboss escape.
Embosser Font Number
The usable font numbers are based on the emboss wheel installed in the embosser. Several fonts
from the following list typically are supported by a given wheel:
1 Emboss Standard Gothic [front 10 cpi]
2 Emboss Farrington 7B [front 7 cpi]
3 Indent OCRB [back 10 cpi]
