Font height
The height of the characters you print is measured in point sizes. The
LaserJet III emulation provides fonts in 6,7,8.5, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18,24 and
36 point sizes. If the font height you specifically ask for is not available, the
printer will select the font with the size closest to your request.
To select font height for the primary font use the following command. For
n enter the font height in points that you want:
<ESC> (s n V
To select font height for the secondary font, send this command:
<ESC> )s n V
Style
Style defines whether your text is printed in italics or upright, the way these
words are. Send this command to select the style you want for the primary
font:
<ESC> (s n S
in which for n you enter 0 if you want normal upright text,
or 1 if you want italics.
To select style for the secondary font, just reverse the parenthesis and use the
same n numbers:
<Esc> )s n s
Remember that style is a relatively low-priority attribute. If a particular font
satisfies all higher priority attributes but doesn’t come in the style you want,
you’ll get that font without your style.
Stroke weight
The weight of a font defines how lightly or boldly it prints
With LaserJet III emulation you can be more flexible about stroke weight
than with the bold on/off commands of the other emulations. The following
command gives you a range of 15 degrees of boldness, though not many fonts
exploit that range.
Send this command to select a primary font with your desired stroke weight:
&SC> (s n B
in which you replace n with a number from -7 (meaning light) to +7 (very
bold). You need the negative sign to get the lighter weights. A weight of 0
