Examples

To specify the font associated with ID number 7 as the primary font, send:

EC(7X

To specify the font associated with ID number 5 as the secondary font, send:

EC)5X

Select Default Font Command

The Default Font command sets all of the font characteristics to those of the user (control panel selected) default font.

EC ( 3 @ - Default primary font characteristics

EC ) 3 @ - Default secondary font characteristics

Note	If the user default font is a proportionally-spaced font, the pitch
	characteristic is not affected by the default font command.

HP-GL/2 Font Selection

In addition to selecting fonts using the PCL font selection commands, fonts can also be selected and printed in HP-GL/2 mode using the HP-GL/2 label commands (refer to Chapter 23, Character Group). The HP-GL/2 font selection commands allow you to label vector graphic images and to create some special effects with fonts not otherwise available. These special effects include printing outline fonts from fonts which are not outline style, printing mirror-images of fonts, and printing fonts on any angle on the logical page. Fonts can also be scaled using HP-GL/2 vector graphics, however this font scaling method is rather program intensive and not the recommended method (refer to “HP-GL/2 Vector Graphics” in Chapter 25 for additional information).
