^CF
Change Alphanumeric Default Font
Description The ^CF command sets the default font used in your printer. You can use the
^CF command to simplify your programs.
Format ^CFf,h,w
This table identifies the parameters for this format:
Parameter
f specifies the default font for every alphanumeric field. Parameter h is the default
height for every alphanumeric field, and parameter w is the default width value for every
alphanumeric field.
The default alphanumeric font is A. If you do not change the alphanumeric default font and do
not use any alphanumeric field command (
^AF) or enter an invalid font value, any data you
specify prints in font A.
Defining only the height or width forces the magnification to be proportional to the parameter
defined. If neither value is defined, the last
^CF values given or the default ^CF values for
height and width are used.
