HP 800, 700 manual Font Descriptor Size UINT, Descriptor Format UBYTE, Symbol Set Type UBYTE

Fonts

The following notation is used to define data types in the font definitions:

(BOOL)	Boolean (0,1)
(UBYTE)	Unsigned Byte (0 . . . 255)
(SBYTE)	Signed Byte (-1 28 . . .1 27)
(UINT)	Unsigned Integer (0 . . . 65535)
(SINT)	Signed Integer (-32768 . . . 32767)
(ULINT)	Unsigned Long Integer (0 . . . (232-1 ))
(SLINT)	Signed Long Integer (_231. . . (23 (ASCxx)
ASCII String	(array (0 . . . (xx-1))) of characters

11.2.1Font Descriptor Size (UINT)

This field contains the number of bytes in the font descriptor (not the font definition size, which is given by the escape sequence value field). See the font definition tables for the appropriate value. The font is invalid if the size is less than the minimum required.

11.2.2Descriptor Format (UBYTE)

Identifies the font as one of the following: ValueFormat

0 Standard Bitmap

20 Resolution-Specified Bitmap Unrecognized values invalidate font creation.

!	HP DeskJets prior to the HP DeskJet 600 Series use a value of 9 for landscape fonts or
	fonts larger than 18 points; all other HP DeskJet fonts use a value of 5.
	The HP DeskJet 600 and 85X Series printers only support formats 0 (Standard Bitmap),
	and 20 (Resolution-Specified Bitmap).

11.2.3Symbol Set Type (UBYTE)

Describes the font’s relationship to symbol sets.

Value Symbol Set Organization

0Bound font, 7-bit (96 characters) - Character codes 32-127 [decimal] are print- ablea

1Bound, 8-bit (192 characters) - Character codes 32-127 and 160-255 printable.

2Bound font, 8-bit (256 characters) - All codes are printable except 0, 7-15, and 27a

10Unbound font, no symbol set affiliation - Character codes correspond to MSL numbers (for Intellifont unbound scalable fonts)

11Unbound font, no symbol set affiliation - Character codes correspond to Unicode numbers (for TrueType unbound scalable fonts)
