(2) Pattern data structure
The pattern data structure and data creation rules are explained below.
a) Rules
● Each pattern data unit consists of 8 bits. For each bit, dot presence is indicated by the value 1 (dot
present) or 0 (dot not present).
● Vertically arrayed 8 dots correspond to 8 bits (1 byte).
● For character sizes of 4
×5, 5×5, 7×10, 5×7, and 9×7, etc., some portions of 8-bit data are
unavailable. Set such portions to "0". (Even if you set them to "1", processing will be performed with
their settings changed to "0".)
