Part 5 Character Attributes and Text Effects
The operations in this part of the manual explain how to change fonts and charac-
ter styles. These characteristics are called “character attributes.” It also tells you
how to assign such text effects as underlining, shading, and box printing to text.
Important!
•
Character attributes you specify affect printed text only. The characters on
the display do not change.
•
Remember that character attributes are assigned to specific characters. When-
ever you replace a character with another one, the new character also picks
up the attributes of the original character.
•
Text effects are applied to both displayed text and printed text.
Fonts
This label printer gives you a choice of 10 different fonts. See page E-42 for
examples of each type of font.
The following sections describe how to change the default font setting (the font
that is automatically used whenever you input text), how to change the font for
displayed text, and how you can find out what the font setting is for text on the
display.
Important!
•
Built-in fonts are provided for numbers, alpha-characters, European language
characters, and some symbols ([Space], [ , ], [ . ], [ : ], [ ; ], [ ? ], [ ! ], [ ‘ ], [ ’ ],
[ “ ], [ ” ], [ „ ], [ ¿ ], [ ¡ ], [ ~ ]).
•
You cannot change the font for symbols other than the 15 noted above or for
illustrations.

superscripted or subscripted charac-
ters are not affected by FONT settings.
