Appendix C

Available Fonts – Sizes, References, and Samples
All character bitmapped fonts available on the printers are described in this section. Each
font has a name (Font ID) associated with it for use in programming. Use the Font Number
(in the left column of Table C-1) in field b of the Format Record header to cause the printer
to use the corresponding font.
Fonts 0 through 8 use the slash zero (Ø) conventions for distinguishing between the zero
and the alphabetic O. The slash can be removed with the label formatting command z.
These fonts are non-proportional (monospaced). Therefore, all of the characters take up the
same amount of space when printed. This is helpful when using variable data in a fixed
area. The sizes of these fonts are shown on the following pages.
The CG Triumvirate font number 9 is a proportional font. Each character will take up a
different amount of space when printed. For example, the letter W will be wider than the
letter I.
