SCF — Save Current Font
Format
SCF;
Parameter
None
Function
The SCF command saves the current font so that it can be retrieved later using the RPF
(return to previous font) command. The font to be saved can be either a bitmap font or a
scalable font.
Up to eight font numbers can be saved in the printing system’s memory by SCF
commands (using a separate SCF command for each).
The SCF command only instructs the printing system to remember the font. It does not
move actual fonts in or out of memory.
