Symbol Sets and Character Maps
Symbol Set Selection
Scalable fonts are mapped through a symbol set sometimes referred to as a ‘code page’. This mapping
allows the host application to select a variety of characters to match the application. For example in the
code page (CP), character code
0xE4
causes character
Φ
to be printed. In CP E7, the character code
0xE4
causes
δ
to be printed. Each of the CPs allows the host application to “emulate” a character set for their
application. Datamax printers that support scalable fonts contain either a standard or an enhanced group
of CPs as defined below. The CP (symbol set) is selected using a DPL Command,
<STX>ySxx
, where
xx
is the two letter CP Identifier.
Note:
In the following table, “
√
” indicates a full compliment of characters, “Part” indicates a partial compliment of
characters, and “X” indicates an absence of characters for the given code page.
