RE: Font Codes

[Emilio Padilla - Sistematica <EPADILLA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not printing this.  I'm emailing it.  It supposes to substitute a
browser page.  We don't want to keep showing the data on screen so they can
print it.  The idea is to email it to them.  But we want to keep the
formatting the same way is presented now.

BTW, it is possible to generate a color page segment? I've been trying to do
it with the AFP printer drivers with no success.

Hi Emilio!  I don't think there is a graphical table.  I always looked at
the Printer Device Programming manual.  In the past, the CL Reference had a
list in the appendix under the FONT keyword.  I have a template program that
I keep around to generate a graphic list of fonts:

1'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'
 FONT(221)                   
 SPACEA(1)                   
1'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
 FONT(221)                   
 SPACEA(1)                   
1'1234567890'                
 FONT(221)                   
 SPACEA(1)                   
4'Prestige 15 (221)'         
 SPACEA(1)                   

Compile as DEVTYPE(*AFPDS) and print it out.  In my experience, each printer
is slightly different...
