Understanding fonts The following illustration shows samples of a font printed in different point sizes: The point size of a font is defined as the distance from the top of the tallest character in the font to the bottom of the lowest character in the font. Due to the definition of point size, different fonts printed at the same point size may appear quite different in size. This is because there are other font parameters that affect how the font looks. However, the point size of a font is an excellent specification of the relative size of a font. The following examples illustrate two very different proportional fonts at 14 point: Bitmapped and scalable fonts The printer uses both bitmapped and scalable fonts. Bitmapped fonts are stored in printer memory as predefined patterns of bits that represent a typeface at a specific size, style, and resolution. The following illustration shows an example of a character from a bitmapped font. Bitmapped fonts are available in different type styles and point sizes as downloadable fonts. Contact the place where you bought your printer for more information about downloadable fonts. 177

Understanding fonts

The following illustration shows samples of a font printed in different point sizes:

The point size of a font is defined as the distance from the top of the tallest character in the font to the

bottom of the lowest character in the font. Due to the definition of point size, different fonts printed at

the same point size may appear quite different in size. This is because there are other font

parameters that affect how the font looks. However, the point size of a font is an excellent

specification of the relative size of a font. The following examples illustrate two very different

proportional fonts at 14 point:

Bitmapped and scalable fonts

The printer uses both bitmapped and scalable fonts.

Bitmapped

fonts are stored in printer memory as predefined patterns of bits that represent a typeface

at a specific size, style, and resolution. The following illustration shows an example of a character

from a bitmapped font.

Bitmapped fonts are available in different type styles and point sizes as downloadable fonts. Contact

the place where you bought your printer for more information about downloadable fonts.
