zValue — Defines the properties of the characteristic specified by the kind parameter.

When selecting fonts, the different characteristics (symbol set, spacing, pitch, etc.) are prioritized as shown in the table above, with symbol set being the highest priority and typeface being the lowest. The font selection priority is the same for HP-GL/2 as for PCL font selection. For more information about the priority of font characteristics, see the “Font Selection by Characteristic” discussion in Chapter 8.

To avoid duplication of many pages of tables, the tables listing the kind parameters (symbol set, spacing, typeface, etc.) are located with the description of the SD (Standard Font Description) command.

The following example shows the command used to designate a

30-point CG Times Bold Italic font in the ASCII symbol set (use the Select Alternate Font (SA) command to select this font after it is designated):

Note that the pitch parameter is missing in the above command because the designated font is proportionally spaced.
