The Location parameter sets the starting position. If the Font parameter is not specified, then the font is set to the current font from the FONT message. Use the Font parameter to print a specific font. This is useful when printing the TEXTXY on every page with the same font, because the font that is set with thethe FONT message may change during printing. The Repeat parameter is used to repeat the text on every page.
