Pos. | Field | Type/unit | Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
# | type | char | A
1 | x | int/mils | Center X coordinate
2 | y | int/mils | Center Y coordinate
3 | radius | int/mils | Radius of the arc
4 | startangle | int/degrees | Starting angle of the arc
5 | sweepangle | int/degrees | Amount the arc sweeps
6 | color | int | Color index
7 | width | int/mils | Width of circle line
8 | capstyle | int | Cap style
9 | dashstyle | int | Type of dash style
10 | dashlength | int/mils | Length of dash
11 | dashspace | int/mils | Space inbetween dashes

- The startangle can be negative, but not recommended.
- The sweepangle can be negative, but not recommended.
- The capstyle is an enumerated type:
  - END NONE = 0
  - END SQUARE = 1
  - END ROUND = 2
- The dashstyle is an enumerated type:
  - TYPE SOLID = 0
  - TYPE DOTTED = 1
  - TYPE DASHED = 2
  - TYPE CENTER = 3
  - TYPE PHANTOM = 4
- The dashlength parameter is not used for TYPE SOLID and TYPE DOTTED. This parameter should take on a value of -1 in these cases.
- The dashspace parameter is not used for TYPE SOLID. This parameter should take on a value of -1 in these case.

Example:

    A 30600 75000 2000 0 45 3 0 0 3 75 50

An arc with the center at (30600, 75000) and a radius of 2000 mils, a starting angle of 0, sweeping 45 degrees, color index 3, line width of 0 mils (smallest size), no cap, center line type, dash length of 75 mils, dash spacing of 50 mils.
