The bits for each character are stored separately, and start on a byte boundary. Sequential bytes represent vertical pieces of the character image. For example, a 15-bit-wide H is stored as follows:
Byte Byte ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÂÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ 1 ³ 00000000 ³ 0000000- ³ 13 Bytes 1 through 12 are composed of 2 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 14 whole bytes of data stored row by row. 3 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 15 4 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 16 Bytes 13 through 24 are composed of 5 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 17 bytes stored row by row, where each byte 6 ³ 01111111 ³ 1111110- ³ 18 contains 7 bits of information and the 7 ³ 01111111 ³ 1111110- ³ 19 last bit is unused. 8 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 20 9 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 21 Thus the character is laid down in 10 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 22 byte-wide columns. 11 ³ 01100000 ³ 0000110- ³ 23 12 ³ 00000000 ³ 0000000- ³ 24 ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÁÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ
