The 'pitch' property


Numeric scalar

Valid for: Printer

When you print text using the Print method of a Printer object, APLX usually prints each character in its standard width, as set by the current font. This behavior applies if the pitch property is set to its default value of ¯1

If you want to specify a different character spacing, you can set the pitch property to be a positive value, expressed in the current scale of the object. This will then be used as the fixed width of each character cell.
