The LA75 Plus font file download capability is limited by the following
considerations :
• The LA75 Plus supports font file downloading if the input buffer size is
configured to standard size by the setup facility.
• The LA75 Plus supports two font buffers only. As a result, only the Pfn
‘‘Font Number’’ values 1 and 2 are supported, and any other value causes
the DECDLD sequence to be ignored.
• Each buffer has sufficient capacity for one full-cell 96-character character
set.
