Syntax: ASPECT A Set the aspect ratio (Y/X) to be A; This is used in drawing characters and points. If A is exactly 0, the current aspect ratio is printed. It is reset when a new DEVICE command is issued. Usually the aspect ratio is calculated by SM to make characters look right (and to make square points square), but it is sometimes useful to override this, especially when positioning labels on graphs that will be plotted on printers of different aspect ratios.
