All of the above field types except graphics are discussed in Chapter 3. See Chapter 5,
“Creating Graphics
” for information on including graphics in your format.
Considering Fonts
When working with fonts, you have three considerations: font appearance, font size (scalable
or bitmapped), and font spacing (monospaced or proportional).
The TrueType® scalable font, EFF Swiss Bold™ (font 50) is standard on the printers. See
Appendix B, “Fonts
,” for samples of each font.
Using the Format Worksheet
The Format Worksheet is divided into sections that list the field types. Each section has boxes
to fill in with parameters that define your format. A format worksheet is included in Appendix
D, “Format Design Tools
.”
