12. FONTS, cont'd.
5. Listing Fonts
5. Special Fonts
Regardless in which parts of the memory the different bitmap fonts
are stored, they can all be listed to the standard OUT channel by a
single statement, namely FONTS. This statement does not list
dedicated bar code fonts.
Another method of listing bitmap fonts is to use a FONTNAME$
function, which also will list dedicated barcode fonts.
Font files can be listed to the standard OUT channel by means of the
FILES statement.
This example shows how all fonts can be listed:
10 A$ = FONTNAME$(0)
20 IF A$ ="" THEN END
30 PRINT A$
40 A$ = FONTNAME$(-1)
50 GOTO 20
RUN
If you have special requests regarding fonts, these can be solved in
different ways:
• Order a set of configuration EPROM:s or a memory card containing
the font(s) you require directly from your local Intermec distributor.
• Use Toolbox to convert an outline font file to bitmap format and
download it to the desired part of the printer's memory (EPROM's,
RAM memory or memory card).
• Use the optional “Scalable Fonts Kit” to convert an outline font
file to a bitmap font (certain printer models only).
• Use the FONT LOAD statement to download fonts in .ATF
format (certain printer models only).
Outline font files can be bought directly from Intermec.
For more information on the conversion of fonts, please refer to:
- Intermec Fingerprint 6.13 Reference Manual, FONT and FONT
LOAD statements.
- Technical Manual; Scalable Fonts Kit (some printer models only)
