Character Encoding Tables
The tables on the following pages are examples of the character
encoding used by the fonts available on your printer. The first table
(titled “Standard Encoding”) is the standard encoding for all but
two (Symbol and ITC Zapf Dingbats) fonts. The numbers at the far
left of the table are the first two digits of the octal code values. Each
number across the top of the table corresponds to the third digit of
an octal value. To find the octal value of any character, read the
first two digits for the row and the last digit for the column that
corresponds to the character you want. For example, “A” is in the
row headed by “10x” and the column headed by “1.” Therefore,
“A” has an octal value of 101. The second and third tables are the
only two fonts that are not encoded the same as the first table. The
characters in the Symbol set and ITC Zapf Dingbats have different
characters assigned to the octal values.
In addition to the characters in the tables, the fonts have certain
“unencoded” characters. Refer to the PostScript Language
Reference Manual (available from Addison-Wesley Publishing
Company and many bookstores) for more information about
unencoded characters.
