Or a valid downloaded font selector number.
Fonts 5 and 6 are for numeric data only.
The CG Triumvirateä typefaces support only the ANSI and DOS Code
Page 437 and 850 Symbol Sets. The scalable font does not support Code
Page 1256 (Arabic). See Appendix C for more information.
C6. hgt mag Height magnifier, 1 to 7 times (4 to 255 points for scalable/downloaded
TrueType fonts). Use a magnifier of 1 with proportionally spaced fonts,
because characters lose smoothness at higher magnifications. See
Appendix B, “Fonts,” for more information about fonts.
C7. wid mag Width magnifier, 1 to 7 times (4 to 255 points for scalable/downloaded
TrueType fonts). Proportionally spaced fonts do not have a set width. To
estimate the size of your field, use the letter “W” for the widest field or an
“L” for an average width field. Find your selected font and the desired
width in Appendix B, “Fonts.”
C8. color There are two types of field color overlay attributes:
Transparent The overlay field (text or constant text) does not block out
(or “erase”) existing fields.
Opaque The overlay field blocks out (or “erases”) existing fields.
Options for standard printer fonts:
B Opaque, Normal, Black, Normal
D/R/W Opaque, Normal, White, Normal
O Transparent, Normal, Black, Normal
Options for scalable fonts:
A/N Opaque, Normal, Black, Bold
B/O Opaque, Normal, Black, Normal
E/S Opaque, Italics, Black, Bold
F/T Opaque, Italics, Black, Normal
Note: Solid black print should not exceed 30% on a given square inch of
the label, or the printhead life may be decreased.
Field placement in the packet is an important consideration when using
field color attributes. If a line field is defined before the overlay (text or
constant text) field, the line field is blocked out by the overlay field,
depending on the overlay field’s color attribute. If a line field is defined
after the overlay field, the line field is not blocked out by the overlay field,
regardless of the overlay field’s color attribute.
