With the Font function, you can change the font of
the text to one of the many that are available. For

NOTE
Letter Gothic (L. GOTHIC) is a fixed pitch font (all
characters use a fixed amount of space), as opposed
to all of the other fonts, which are proportional
(characters use different amounts of space).
To change the setting for the Font function:
1 Select GLOBAL FORMAT, BLOCK FOR-
MAT or LINE FORMAT (OR hold down
d and press 1, 2 or 3) as described
on pages 52 to 53.
NOTE
This step may be skipped if settings for several for-
mat functions are being applied at the same time.
2 Rotate r until FONT is displayed, and then
press r (OR press j or k until FONT is
displayed). The setting for the text at the
cursor's current position is shown on the
left side of the display and a sample can be
seen on the right side.

3 Rotate r (OR press m or g) until the
desired setting is displayed.
NOTE
If "*****" appears as a setting, the Font function
has already been applied to part of the current
text (either a line in the current block if the
Block format or the Global format function is
being set or a block in the text if the Global for-
mat function is being set). Changing the setting
will cancel the setting that was previously
applied.
To return the function to its default setting (HEL-
SINKI), press the space bar.
To return to the text without changing the for-
matting, press e (OR hold down d and
press 1, 2 or 3).
4 Press r (OR press n) to apply the setting.
NOTE
If r is used to select the settings, only one function
can be set at a time. To apply several format set-
tings at the same time, press j or k to select the
function, and then press m or g to select the
desired setting. Press n only after the necessary
functions have been set.
Size function (SIZE)
The character size can be adjusted using the
Size function. With the AUTO setting, the
machine compares your text with the width of
the installed tape and automatically adjusts the
characters to the largest possible size. For sam-
ples of the available Size settings, refer to
page 100. The size of the text at the cursor's cur-
rent position is shown in the lower-right corner
of the display and with the indicator on the right
side of the display.
