Scalable Typefaces and Symbol Sets

Table 3-3 lists the internal scalable Intellifont typefaces resident in the various printers. Table 3-4 lists the TrueType typefaces. Most of these typefaces are unbound; that is they can be linked to any of the available symbol sets (with the limitations indicated). The symbol sets to which a typeface can be bound are identified in Tables 3-5, 3-6, and 3-7. (A list of all of the assigned symbol set and typeface codes is provided in Tables B-1, B-2, and B-3.)
