CHAPTER 4 HP-GL/2 - 16
With
type
1 scaling you can specify the percentage of unused space that is to lie below,
or to the left of,
the isotropic area.
left
specifies the percentage of unused space you want to lie to the left of the isotropic area and can be from 0
to 100.
If you do not specify the value for
left
,
it is automatically set to the default value = 50%.
bottom
specifies the percentage of unused space you want to lie below the isotropic area and can be from 0 to
100.
If you do not specify the value for
bottom
,
it is automatically set to the default value = 50%.

You must either specify both
left
and
bottom
, or specify neither.
However, the printer can only use one of
these two parameters at a time, depending where the extra space is on a page. ¥
If you do not specify a percentage for unused space to the
left
or at the
bottom
,
the isotropic area is centred
in the rectangle defined by P1 and P2.
Type
2 scaling (point factor scaling) specifies the ratio of graphics units to user units and sets user units
coordinates for P1.
X
factor
specifies the number of graphics units that comprise a single user x-axis unit.
Y
factor
specifies the number of graphics units that comprise a single user y-axis unit.
Valid values for X
factor
and Y
factor
are real numbers.
An SC command remains in effect until another SC command is issued,
until default settings are restored
with the DF command or until the printer is initialized with an IN command.
