Choose the font type from [Standard Font], [Stroke Font], or
[Image Font].
Stroke Font and Standard Font
You can specify the vertical and horizontal
dimensions of a character in bitmap fonts. When you magnify/shrink
characters, the outline may become rough or the letter may appear
compressed.
This is an outline font where the ratio of
the character height/width is fixed. The letters will have a smooth
outline even if you magnify/shrink them. However, this font uses
more disk space on the display unit.
Font Size
Select the text size. Each font type has a different size
range.
Size
Specify "Width x Height" between [8 x 8] to
[64 x 128] in 8 pixel units.
6 to 127
If you select [Automatically Adjust Text
Size], you can adjust the [Maximum Size] and [Minimum Size].
Fixed Size
Available when [Standard Font] is selected. You can choose
between 6x10 pixels, 8x13 pixels, or 13x23 pixels. This font
supports single-byte characters only.
When using 6x10 fonts, you cannot set the [Text Attribute] to
[Bold].
Image Font
Windows fonts are converted to bitmaps and used in display
parts.
