filltype{....}

The command specifies the type of area fill for 60 and 61. The command itself does not draw anything. It only changes the interpretation of 62 in the two commands specified above. The syntax of the command is:

#alltt166#
The legal area fill type are:
  • black (default)
  • white
  • shade

For example, to change area fill type to white fill, the following command should be used.

verbatim29#

These commands are only intended for advance users (those who know what they are doing). They are included mainly because 632 generate these commands. The commands are:

commands ;SPMnbsp;;SPMnbsp;;SPMnbsp;;SPMnbsp;;SPMnbsp;;SPMnbsp;;SPMnbsp;;SPMnbsp;Description
64 Black fill the next figure
65 White fill the next figure
66 Shade the interior next figure
67 Specify the pattern used for the next 68 command. The pattern will remain effective until it is changed by another 69 command. The syntax is:

#alltt183#
An example (the default) is:
verbatim30#
The exact interpretation of the above commands are probably device driver dependent. I did most of tests using 70 (imagen1) and several tests using 71. The description below may not apply to other device drivers.

The commands that can be specified after 72, 73 and 74 include 75, 76 (without 77), 78 (again without 79) and 80. The drawings do not have to be closed. The imagen printer will automatically draw an imaginary line from the starting point to the end point, and then fill the figure. When using 81, the outline of the figures are drawn but not in 82. In another words, when using 83, the command:

verbatim31#
will draw a circle will the circumference in solid line and the interior is filled in the pattern active at that time. However, when using dvips, the circle will not have the circumference drawn in sold line.
