B.1. - About the fonts
This appendix contains samples of the different fonts available for
drawing text on the pen plotter and the graphics filter devices.
(
Fonts 1 through 8 consist partly of characters from
the Hershey Fonts originally created by Dr. A.V. Hershey while working
at the U.S. National Bureau of Standards.
)
The character sequences used to access the Greek, technical and other
special characters are described in the last section of Chapter 6.
All fonts contain all 94 printable
ASCII
characters.
As of
this writing, only fonts 0 and 2 contain all the special characters.
The samples presented here were drawn using the PostScript graphics
filter (psfilter) on an Apple LaserWriter.
The character size was
set to 4mm using the
cs command (see Chapter 6).
