8 Fonts
15 different fonts are available in the software. By default the software uses the
font 'litt.chr'. To select another font: select
CHR in "Mask Data" and select
the desired font from the list (see page 4-10).
For every individual of the 31 text fields of a mask you can select another font.
As a result of the different layouts of the individual fonts however differences
can arise in the character width, height and size.
8.1 Default font
By default the software uses the font 'litt.chr' if no other font was selected.
Default font 'litt.chr' Fig. 10283
The 'litt.chr' consists of 96 characters. It contains the moving lines with the cor-
responding positions of the marking tools for all 96 characters. In addition each
character contains the character height and broad of the grid. This is not the
actually marked character height and broad, but the vertical and horizontal
resolution of the character.
The default font has a vertical resolution of 7 steps. That is a letter is defined by
a resolution of 7 steps, based on capital letters. Umlaut in capitalisation and
special characters exceed the normal character height, lower case with descen-
der such as g, p, q, y and special characters fall below the character height of 0.
