Parameter f specifies the default font for every alphanumeric field. Parameter h is default height for
every alpha field, parameter w is default width value for every alpha field.
The default alphanumeric font is A. If you do not change the alphanumeric default font(^CF
command) and do not use any alphanumeric field command(^Af) or enter an invalid font value, any
data you specify will print in font A.
Defining only the height or width forces the magnification to be proportional to the parameter
defined. If neither value is defined, the ^CF values given or the default ^CF values for height and
width are used.
^A
Scalable/Bitmapped Font
Description:
The ^A command is used with build-in or TrueType® fonts. ^A designates the font for the current
^FD statement or field. The font specified in ^A will be used only once for that ^FD entry. If ^A is
not specified again, the default ^CF font will be used for the next ^FD entry.
Format: ^Af,o,h,w
Parameters:
f = font name
Accepted Values: letters A through Z, and numbers 1 to 9.
Default Value: A
Any font in the printer(downloaded, EPROM, stored fonts, font A through Z and 1 to
9)can also be selected with the ^CW command. If the value is incorrect or unspecified,
it will revert to the default or the current ^CF value.
o = font orientation
Accepted Values:
N = normal
R = rotated90 degrees(clockwise)
I = inverted180 degrees
B = read from bottom up,270 degrees
Default Value: the last accepted ^FW value or the ^FW default.
h = character height(in dots)
Scalable:
Accepted Values:10 to 1500
Default Value: last accepted value for ^CF.
Bitmapped:
