Distance Y means the distance between two vertical lines, dots or circles.

The Unit Distance X, Y is according to the image¡¯ DPI, it can calculate on the bottom:

For Example: When the image DPI is 300, X=1 the real distance X is 0.0847mm, If X=10, the real X=0.847mm.

Horizontal line

We take "ASC365" as example, after filling, will get the below effect.
