Description
Use as predefined or as defined by DECATFF.
Once a font has been assigned to one of the SGR font selection
parameters (10-19), SGR selects that font for subsequent printing.
You can assign a font to an SGR parameter using Assign Type Family
or Font (DECATFF) or you can use the default assignments. See
DECATFF for specific information on assignment.
If you do not assign a font using DECATFF, the printer uses the
default assignments. See the Programming Supplement for the initial
state values of SGR parameters.
If you use SGR to select a proportional font, make sure that
Proportional Spacing Mode (DECPSP) is set.
The select font command can be used anywhere in the data stream.
The selected font remains in effect until any of die following occurs:
▪
The printer receives another select font command (SGR 10-19).
▪
The font assigned to the currently selected SGR parameter is
changed (DECATFF).
▪
The printer is reset or powered down.
A character set change may result in a temporary font change.
Side Effects
If the font is assigned to the selected SGR parameter by font
collection plus, the printer sets Proportional Spacing Mode (DECPSP)
according to byte 8 of the font ID.
