11-18 Soft Font Creation EN
Note The reserved bits (15 - 10) should be set to zero.
If a value is requested, and a match not made, the request is ignored
and the current font selection process continues as if the parameter
was never requested (but it is saved in the attribute table).
Example
Assuming a font style of “italic compressed contour” is desired, the
value (#) would be:
1 + (2×4) + (3×32) = 105
Baseline Position (UI)
Bitmap Font - Specifies the distance from the top of the cell to the
baseline. The baseline is the dot row on which all of the characters in
a given line appear to stand (see ). The measurement of this distance
is in font resolution dots, as defined in the Resolution Field of a
Format 20 font header (default=300 dpi).
Intellifont Scalable - Specifies a Y-coordinate in the design window
(refer to Figure 11-2.)
TrueType Scalable - Baseline Position must be set to zero.
Cell Width (UI)
Specifies the width of the cell. The cell must be wide enough to
accept the widest character. The cell width range is 1 to 65535.
Bitmap Font - Specified in PCL coordinate system dots.
Scalable Font - Specified in design units.
Cell Height (UI)
Specifies the height of the cell. The design cell for a font must be tall
enough to accept the tallest character and greatest descender. The
legal range is 1 to 65535.
