Kind 2: Font Spacing

The font spacing characteristic defines whether the spacing is fixed (all characters occupying an equal horizontal space) or proportional (each character occupying a space proportional to its size). Refer to “Using Fonts” in the beginning of this chapter.

Table 23-40 Kind 2: Font Spacing Values

Font SpacingValue	Description
0	fixed spacing (default)
1	proportional spacing

Kind 3: Pitch

The pitch characteristic is a horizontal measurement defining the number of characters-per-inch for fixed-spaced fonts.

When selecting proportional fonts, do not include pitch in the font definition command (SD or AD).

Table 23-41 Kind 3: Pitch Values

Pitch Values	Description
0 to 32 767.9999	characters per inch (default: 9)

Fixed-spaced fonts depend on pitch to determine character size. Proportional fonts ignore pitch. Note that with the SD and AD command you cannot create tall, skinny characters or short, wide characters; the character aspect ratio is preserved unless an SI or SR command overrides it.
