Note	If a proportional-spaced scalable font is selected using an ID number,
	send the Height command to specify the point size otherwise, the size
	is determined by the height characteristic value of the former
	font (as listed in the font select table) See “Font Selection by
	ID Command” later in this chapter for more information.

Example

To specify a height of 12 points for the primary font, send:

EC(s12V

To specify a height of 14.4 points for the secondary font, send:

EC)s14.4V

If the above sequence was used for selection of a scalable font, the actual font would be scaled to 14.5 points.
