Scalable, Proportional-Spaced Font

This example illustrates how to select a primary, scalable, CG Times,
proportional-spaced font with the following characteristics (note that
all of the font characteristics are specified except pitch which is not
required for a proportional font):
Symbol set
Spacing
Height
Style
Stroke weight
Typeface family
The following escape sequences can be sent to the printer to select a
