Downloading Font Correspondences
The 5250 ALLY supports the use of the Logical Not command used to
download font correspondences from the host System. The general format
for this command is:
¬¬(((
x
on
=
fontname
)))
where:
x
is any digit. It is ignored.
o
is either P for Portrait or L for Landscape. This character specifies in
which of the two font correspondence tables the entry should be placed. If
the last character of the font name (see below) is either P or L, then the
o
parameter is optional.
n
is the IBM GFID (typestyle number) to be used by the host System to
refer to the font. This value must be in the range of 1 - 65534. Leading
zeros in the GFID number are acceptable, but not required.
fontname
is the name of the font to be used. This name must be spelled
exactly as it is referred to by the printer. Case is also important, i.e.,
Titan10iso-P and titan10iso-P are different font names. Make certain that
the case is correct in the font name.
When the 5250 ALLY receives this command, it creates an entry in the
font correspondence table and turns the
fontname
into an escape
sequence that will select the font at the printer.
An example:
¬¬(((0
P11=Titan10iso-P
)))
The example above will add an entry to the portrait font correspondence
table that maps GFID (typestyle) number 11 to the font Titan10iso-P. The
P or L at the beginning of the entry is optional if the last character of the
font name is either P or L. For example:
¬¬(((0
11=Titan10iso-P
)))
