+## Mapping
+
+A character occupies a space where (0, 0) represents the coordinates of the top
+left hand corner of the bitmap. It comprises a set of pixels where increasing x
+values represent locations to the right of the origin and increasing y values
+represent downward positions. Mapping is the process whereby this two
+dimensional array of bits is transformed into a linear sequence of bytes.
+
+Vertical mapping means that the LSB of first byte is pixel (0,0), MSB of first
+byte is (0, 7). The second byte (assuming the height is greater than 8 pixels)
+is (0, 8) to (0, 15). Once the column is complete the next byte represents
+(1, 0) to (1, 7).
+
+Horizontal mapping means that the MSB of byte 0 is pixel (0,0) with LSB at
+(7,0), with the second byte covering (8, 0) to (15, 0) if the width is greater
+than 8.
+
+Bit reversal provides for the case where the bit order of each byte is reversed
+i.e. a byte comprising bits [b7b6b5b4b3b2b1b0] becomes [b0b1b2b3b4b5b6b7].

 The design aims primarily to minimise RAM usage. Minimising the size of the
