Overstrike

   When the Overstrike flag (%) is turned on and inserted between
   two characters, it causes the first of the two characters to be
   overstruck by the following one. By default, the Overstrike flag
   is disabled.

   This capability allows the printing of characters not normally
   available, for example, a European 7, which is a 7 overstruck
   with a hyphen.

   Three or more characters can be overstruck, but only if you
   specify the /BACKSPACE qualifier in the DSR command line.
   Otherwise, only the first and last characters in an overstrike
   sequence will appear.

   The action performed by this flag (as opposed to the flag's
   recognition) can be disabled and reenabled by the .DISABLE
   OVERSTRIKING and .ENABLE OVERSTRIKING commands.
