RRL RT'01'/'03'/'10' RIDF'03' (GCSGID/CPGID/FGID/FW = GRID)
• Valid combinations for the IBM Core Interchange Set require p.90 "Code Page" (IBM Core
Interchange Resident Scalable Font Set) (superset GCSGID/FGID/FW), p.92 "Operating
System/400 Terms" (GCSGID Subsets for IBM Core Interchange Fonts) (GCSGID subsets) and p.
93 "Font Terms" (GCSGID/ CPGID), and will be reported via XOA-RRL RT 01 RIDF 03 (also RT
10 RIDF 03). In all GRIDs, the GCSGID chosen will belong to the Code Page, as this is almost
always the subset of the outline font GCSGID.
•
Scalable Font Width (FW) will be reported as 0 to the host PSF. This indicates that any width/
scale-factor is valid.
• CPGIDs and GCSGIDs are listed in p.93 "Font Terms". For each pair, determine which
FGIDs in p.90 "Code Page" (IBM Core Interchange Resident Scalable Font Set) which
contains the p.93 "Font Terms" GCSGID as a subset. An example is that there would be 51
GRID combinations for the Times New Roman Medium font...FGID is always 2308, FW is
always 0, and there are 51 unique CPGID/GCSGID pairs in Table p.93 "Font Terms"
which are subsets of the superset GCSGID 1269.
• Valid combinations for the IBM Coordinated Set require p.119 "IBM Coordinated Font Set (IPDS)"
(Resident PSC Strategic Scalable Font Set 2) (superset GCSGID/FGID/FW), p.121 "IBM
Coordinated Font Set Code Page Set" (GCSGID Subsets for the Strategic Font Set 2) (GCSGID
subsets) and p.106 "IBM Core Interchange Resident Code Page Set" and p.121 "IBM
Coordinated Font Set Code Page Set" (GCSGID/CPGID), and will be reported via XOA-RRL RT
01 RIDF 03 (also RT 10 RIDF 03). In all GRIDs, the GCSGID chosen will belong to the Code Page,
as this is almost always the subset of the outline font GCSGID.
• Scalable Font Width (FW) will be reported as 0 to the host PSF. This indicates that any width/
scale-factor is valid.
• CPGIDs and GCSGIDs are listed in p.93 "Font Terms" and p.97 "XOA-RRL Replies for
Font Character Sets". For each pair, determine which FGIDs in p.96 "IBM Core Interchange
Resident Scalable Font Set (IPDS only)" (Resident PSC Strategic Scalable Font Set 2) can
combine with them. This is done by finding the superset GCSGID in p.97 "XOA-RRL Replies
for Font Character Sets" (GCSGID Subsets for the Strategic Font Set 2) which contains the p.
93 "Font Terms" GCSGID as a subset. An example is that there would be 41 GRID
combinations for the Letter Gothic font...FGID is always 400, FW is always 0, and there are
41 unique CPGID/GCSGID pairs in p.93 "Font Terms" and p.97 "XOA-RRL Replies for
Font Character Sets". which are subsets of the superset GCSGID 2039.
• Valid combinations for the 4028 Compatibility Set require p.94 "Font and Code Page Selection"
(FGID/FW) and p.95 "Resident IPDS Fonts" (GCSGID/CPGID), and will be reported via XOA-
RRL RT 01 RIDF 03. In all GRIDs, the GCSGID chosen will belong to the Code Page, as this is
almost always the subset of the outline font GCSGID.
• The FW's for these fonts are non-zero, because they represent fixed-width fonts.
• The Alternate FGIDs are valid values for FGID/FW combinations.
