FTRACK=LOOSE | NONE | NORMAL | TIGHT | TOUCH | V5 |
leaves the most visible space between characters and produces a longer string.
spacing depends on the size of the font. NONE might produce a shorter or longer string than LOOSE for the same font at different point sizes, because some sizes add space between the characters while others remove it.
places a fixed amount of space between the characters and does not adjust for the shape of the character; that is, it does not support kerning. This spacing is compatible with Version 5 Bitstream fonts.
Details |
The spacing you specify with FTRACK= affects all Bitstream text in a graph. For example, you cannot produce TIGHT Century type and LOOSE Zapf type simultaneously. This option has no effect on other font types.
Because the value of FTRACK= is stored with the graph, the spacing that you specify when the graph is created is always used when the graph is replayed.
