C-PLOT text formatting shares many of the control sequences of troff, the standard UNIX text formatter. The C-PLOT character set includes all the printing ASCII characters, all the Greek letters and more than 90 other math, foreign and special characters. You can choose from 28 special built-in symbols and 7 line types for plotting your points, or you can use any of the other characters as a symbol.
Eight type fonts are included. The default font is the lowest resolution and the fastest to draw. The alternate fonts are of increasing detail and complexity, allowing you to choose the most appropriate font for the size of your plot, the resolution of your display device and the required aesthetics. With each font, you can independently control the height, width and slant of text.
