HP LaserJet Emulation (Mode 6) LaserJet Font Escape Sequences The example below shows an HP font selection escape sequence that selects a LetterGothic font with fixed-pitch, 12-cpi, 12-point, upright-style, normal stroke weight. Characteristic Value (example) Escape Sequence Symbol set Roman-8 ESC(8U Spacing Fixed ESC(s0P Pitch 12-cpi ESC(s12H Height 12-point ESC(s12V Style Upright ESC(s0S Stroke weight Normal ESC(s0B Typeface Letter Gothic ESC(s4102T To select this LetterGothic font, send the following escape sequence to the printing system: ESC(8U ESC(s0P ESC(s12H ESC(s12V ESC(s0S ESC(s0B ESC(s4102T Any escape sequence with two similar consecutive letters after the ESC parameter can be combined as in the transformation of the LetterGothic font below: ESC(8U ESC(s0p12h12v0s0b4102T The FSET command of PRESCRIBE utilizes a similar font selection method. (The symbol set selection is made with the CSET command.) Note the similarities in the FSET command sequence below: FSET 0p12h12v0s0b4102T; Several other LaserJet codes should be considered for font management. See the Font Management section of the HP LaseJetPrinter commands on page 56 and onwards. LaserJet Symbol Sets Symbol set has the highest priority in the HP font selection. The factory default symbol set is IBM PC-8 (10U) for the LaserJet emulation. The LaserJet printer has many other symbol sets not directly accessed by the INTL command. Temporary selection of one of these symbol sets can be made with the CSET (Change symbol SET) command or from the operator panel keys. You can also assign one of these symbol sets to a particular font using the FSET (change current Font SETting) command. More information on these commands appear in Chapter 4. By giving a particular value for the FRPO U6 and U7 parameters, you can set one of the HP symbol sets as the power-up symbol set. In general, symbol set value is: (Escape sequence value field value × 32 + (Decimal value of escape sequence termination character - 64) [=(U7 - 50) × 100 + U6]) Symbol Sets for Bitmap Fonts The printing system substitutes with a scalable font when a bitmap font is required for downward compatibility. The following symbol sets are supported when substituted bitmap fonts are in use. To power up the printing system in one of these symbol set, use the following FRPO U6 and U7 values. 7-37
