The outline feature prints characters as outlines with hollow center. The shadow feature prints
characters with a shadow behind them. Combining the features produces outline characters
with a shadow behind them. These features can be used to produce more interesting and stylish
headings. They can be combined with emphaiszed and/or enhanced printing, double width,
etc., for an even more striking effect.
Note: Outline and shadow can only be used for printing characters: they can't be used to
print line graphics.
