Double-Byte Symbols, Chinese, Kanji and Korean
Character Map Selection
Double-byte scalable fonts are mapped through a ‘character map’. This mapping allows the host
application to select a variety of characters to match the application. Each of the code pages allows the
host application to emulate a character set for their application.
The double-byte symbol set is selected using the <STX>yUxx command.

no impact on the other.
