7 It is assumed that you are familiar with the Fingerprint programming language and that you have access to the latest versions of the Intermec Fingerprint Reference Manual and Intermec Fingerprint Programmer's Guide. These are available both in printed form and as Adobe Acrobat .pdf fi les via the Intermec home page ( ).The reader should be aware that there are large differences in the use of fonts between Fingerprint or later on one hand and Fingerprint or earlier on the other. Information in this manual is only valid for Fingerprint and later versions with reservations for future following terminology is used in this manual:GlyphA generic term for the letters, numbers, signs, and graphical objects, that make up a font. The actual appearance of a glyph depends on the selected generic term for all glyphs with the same typeface (for example Swiss) and style (for example bold) contained within a set with a common name, for example Swiss 721 Bold BT.

8 Fonts can be modifi ed in regard of size, slant, and width relative height. Fingerprint supports fonts in TrueDoc and TrueType (for PC) ValueThe ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) value is used in Fingerprint to specify a certain glyph. Fingerprint supports decimal ASCII values only. Character SetA table that specifi es the decimal ASCII value in the range 032 126 (7-bit communication) or 032 255 (8-bit communication) in Fingerprint for each glyph. Characters in the range 000 031 are always non-printable control characters. The character set is selected using a NASC statement. However, which glyph that will actually be printed also depends on the selected technique of providing a glyph with an ASCII value. For example, a character set is a result of mapping. Sometimes it may be suffi cient to move or replace one or two glyphs in a standard character set using a MAP statement, whereas in other cases, it may be necessary to create a completely new and customized character set, see Chapter 2, User-Defi ned Map Tables.

9 Terminology4 Intermec Fingerprint Font Reference Manual Ed. 1 PrefaceUnicodeA global system of numbering glyphs managed by Unicode Inc. Still being under development, the fi nal goal is to provide each single glyph in all the languages and alphabets in the world with a unique number, called the Unicode number. The font handling in Intermec Fingerprint is based on Unicode ( ).TrueDocTrueDoc is a scalable font format used by Bitstream Inc. and comes as PFR (Portable Font Resource) fi les, which may contain one or several TrueDoc fonts. These can exclusively be obtained through is a scalable font format developed in cooperation between Apple Computer Inc. and Microsoft Corp. Fingerprint can use TrueType fonts in PC format, provided they support CardA memory card containing fonts. Switch off the power to the printer, insert the font card, and switch on the printer.

10 After power-up, the fonts in the card can be used as long as the card remains inserted in the printer. Also see Chapter 1, Font Handling. Font Install CardA memory card that automatically installs and stores all its fonts in the printer at startup. Then the fonts can be used without the card being present. The same card can be used to upgrade several printers. Also see Chapter 1, Font Handling. WGL4 Microsoft has defi ned a character set which includes characters for most European writing systems, including Greek and Turkish. It contains 652 characters and is called Windows Glyph List 4 (WGL4). WGL4 combines the following character sets, also see Chapter 3, Character Sets. - Windows Latin 2 (NASC 1250)- Windows Cyrillic (NASC 1251)- Windows Latin 1 (NASC 1252)- Windows Greek (NASC 1253)- Windows Latin 5 (NASC 1254)- Windows Baltic Rim (NASC 1257)Terminology, Fingerprint Font Reference Manual Ed.
