Underline Specifies whether or not text is printed with an underline.
Y (Yes) An underline is printed.
N (No) No underline is printed.
An underline starts at the beginning of the text data, which includes
leading blanks and blanks between characters if they exist. An
underline stops at the end of the text data.
Notes:
1. Not all printers support this function. You are not allowed to enter
the value if the printer does not support this function.
2. To use underline, you should be aware of the following:
If your printer type is 4, 5, or 6, you must specify font type 1 or
3.
If your printer type is one of the others, there are no
restrictions.
Overstrike Specifies a single SBCS character in the
Overstrike
prompt to type over
on all characters in the defined text data including blank character(s). If
DBCS characters exist in that text, the characters are not typed over.
Notes:
1. Not all printers support this function. You are not allowed to enter
the value if the printer does not support this function.
2. To use overstrike, you should be aware of the following:
If your printer type is 4, 5, or 6, you must specify font type 1 or

Font Specifies a font number. A font number is 1 to 8, and *DEFAULT. A

| or the Work with PFD Definition Fonts display. You can see the list of
| fonts and select one of them by placing the cursor in this field and
| pressing F4.
Notes:
1. The program does not verify that the specified font exists and is an
SBCS font. If the font does not exist, some errors may occur when
this text is printed. If you specify a DBCS font, the result is
unpredictable. Some unexpected characters may be printed, or
some errors may occur.
2. *DEFAULT no longer indicates to use the default font of the printer.
When *DEFAULT is different from what you want, change it on the
Work with Source Overlay Fonts display or the Work with PFD
Definition Fonts display.
DBCS font Specifies a font number. A font number is 1 to 8, and each number is
defined in the Work with Source Overlay Fonts or the Work with PFD
| Definition Fonts display. You can see the list of fonts and select one of
| them by placing the cursor in this field and pressing F4. This prompt
appears when you are using DBCS data in the file for which you
specified Y (Yes) for the
User specified DBCS data
prompt.
Note: It is not checked if the specified font exists and is a DBCS font.
If it does not exist, some errors may occur when this text is printed. If
you specify a SBCS font, the result is unpredictable. Some unexpected
characters may be printed, or some errors may occur.
