Table 3-3 lists the internal scalable Intellifont typefaces
resident in the various printers. Table 3-4 lists the
TrueType typefaces. Most of these typefaces are unbound;
that is they can be linked to any of the available symbol
sets (with the limitations indicated). The symbol sets to
which a typeface can be bound are identified in Tables 3-5,
3-6, and 3-7. (A list of all of the assigned symbol set and
typeface codes is provided in Tables B-1, B-2, and B-3.)
