-cmode:
This parameter determines how the colors of characters and lines are superimposed. It takes an integer parameter with the values of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6(Property Sheets->[Graphic]). Corresponds to -gow: for images.
0 (auto mode(p2)): Normal operation is to REPLACE (hide the bottom color when painting over) for prevew, patch2 for non-dviprt Printing and replace(bak) for Presentation Mode. However for preview, if it is guessed that erasing the lower color is not needed, it is painted over and not erased.
1 (merge) : When painting over, the colors mix (when the r suboption is not included in color specials). When mixed, the color gets closer to the normal character color (black when not the reverse screen).
2 (replace(def)): Always process by REPLACE. Antialiasing is performed with respect to the default background (paper) color. In case of printing, this is same as the next "replace(def)".
3 (replace(bak)): Always process by REPLACE. The color before the previous push is considered to be the background color and antialiasing is performed.
4 (patch) : Replace by each character, line and figure. This is slow in display. dviprt Printing is not valid.
5 (patch2) : Replace by each character, line and figure. TrueType fonts are directy handled by Windows drivers. Loupe and dviprt Printing are not valid. This is slow in display but may be fast in Printing. It deeply depends on the Windows printer driver.
The character in TrueType font indicated "slant" option in [WinJFont] or indicated both rotation and scaling is not directly output through Windows API but treated as in "patch" mode.
The character in TrueType font indicated only rotation or only scaling is expected to be output in better quality than in other modes.
6 (auto mode(rep)): This is same as auto mode(p2) but replace for non-dviprt Printing.
Note: Colored characters undergo antialiasing (gray scale when black and white). The blurring of color characters on the reduced Preview view is eliminated. Since some problems cannot be handled by REPLACE, the character outline becomes a faint color.
When Printing under Windows driver, usually process "patch2" for "auto mode".
