Simulation support:
This function is mandatory for hardcopy drivers, but may simply return a DEVESC_NOTIMPLEMENTED code. For other drivers, it is simulated by a handling routine in the graphics engine.
Description:
GreEscape DEVESC_CHAR_EXTRA changes the width of all characters, including the break character on a hardcopy device. The handling routine sets or resets, as defined by the value of cInCount, an extra width value. Upon completion, the width of a character is the default width specified by the font plus the extra width set by DEVESC_CHAR_EXTRA. The extra width can be positive, zero, or negative.
