FONT Mnemonic - Set SYSPRINT Font
Syntax
'FONT'(fontname{,cpi,points{,charset}})
Description
For BBj-specific information, see Font Mnemonic - Set SYSPRINT Font BBj.
The 'FONT' mnemonic sets the font to be used by the SYSPRINT device. The appropriate font from the font family in the fontname parameter will be used. If the characters per inch (cpi) and points parameters are given, new print columns and rows will be computed to match the width and height. If the cpi and points parameters are not specified, Visual PRO/5 will attempt to map the font to the current cols and rows selected. Visual PRO/5 2.x provides the capability to specify a character set by using the optional charset parameter, which is the same parameter used by the 'WINFONT' mnemonic.
