Symbol Set

Symbol set identifies the specific collection of symbols provided by a font. Each symbol set is defined with a specific application in mind. For example, the legal and math symbol sets were designed to support legal and scientific applications. The following figure shows two common symbol sets, PC-8 and Roman-8. The PC-8 symbol set contains some special symbols and line draw characters not included in the Roman-8 symbol set, while the Roman-8 set contains European characters not contained in the PC-8 symbol set.

Note

User-defined symbol sets are supported by some HP LaserJet

 

printers. See Chapter 10 for more information.
