Chapter 10 — Character Sets and Fonts

10.1 Character Sets

This chapter contains the various single-byte character sets, that can be
selected using the
"Swiss 721 BT". Other fonts may not include all characters. Double-byte
character sets are not included, but are available separately on special
request.
The following information applies to all single-byte character sets:
• Characters between ASCII 0 decimal and ASCII 31 decimal are
unprintable control characters. To specify a control character, use the
instruction
CHR$(<dec. ascii value>)
• Characters between ASCII 32 decimal and ASCII 127 decimal can
always be printed, regardless of 7-bit or 8-bit communication proto-
col, provided that the selected font contains the characters in question.
• Characters between ASCII 127 decimal and ASCII 255 decimal can
only be printed if the selected font contains the characters in question
and an 8-bit communication protocol is used. If you use 7-bit com-
munication, select another national character set (see
in Chapter 6.13) or use a
Chapter 6.12).
• If a character, which does not exist in the selected font, is used, an
error condition (Error 1030) will occur.
