HP L5 manual Typeface Values Family Typeface Family Base

Both the typeface family value and the typeface base value can be used for font selection. Since the typeface family value (two-byte value) is based on the typeface base value (9 bit value), a font selection which specifies the typeface base value may select a font described by a typeface family value in the printer.

There is some variation in how font selection occurs between PCL 5 printer models when mixing the typeface family and base values. The typeface selection compatibility for two types of values is identified for the various PCL 5 printers in Table 3-8.

Some typeface (two-byte) family values and their corresponding base values are listed below. For a complete listing of typeface family and base values, refer to Tables C-2 and C-3 in Appendix C of this document.
