You can select a font in any of these typefaces, specifying height (point size) and symbol set. Characters printed
in scalable fonts are always proportionally spaced - that is, the spacing between characters on a line depends on
their shapes. To add to the number of fonts available, you can buy scalable typeface cartridges/cards which you
can insert into the printer’s cartridge/card slots and scalable typeface disks from which you can copy the
typefaces into the printer’s memory. You can also create your own downloadable scalable typefaces, using
software commands.
5.1.4. Bound fonts
Bound fonts are fonts which have only a single symbol set.
5.1.5. Unbound fonts
Unbound fonts are fonts which have a large amount of symbols selected from a complementary symbol index
(intellifont) or unicode symbol index (TrueType).
5.1.6. Font sources
Depending on your printer model, fonts available to the printer can be in one of three places, either in the
printer’s ROM as supplied from the factory, on a cartridge/card, on the storage device, or in the printer’s RAM.
RAM fonts are downloaded from a personal computer.
5.1.7. Internal fonts
The printer comes with some bitmap fonts contained in its ROM and many scalable typefaces which can be used
to create scalable fonts.
