Example: Symbol set commands
Let’s take a short look at how you use these commands. Here’s the scenario:
You are already using the Line Printer typeface, but want to use the German
symbol set as you are writing a report for your Berlin office and need umlaut
characters for several names in the report.
Then in the report you decide to use a proprietary product name, so want to
nip out to grab the @symbol on a legalcartridge font you’ve already loaded,
then return to your German set. When your report’s all done, you want to
return the printer to its Roman-8 default.
Here are the commands that will do the job for us:
<ESC> ( OG
(you start your report here)
<ESC> ( IU @
<ESC> ( OG
(you finish your report here)
<ESC> ( O@
If you had finished with <ESC> ( 3@ the printer would return to itsstandard
Courier font, notjust its Roman-8 symbol set.
