Defining the Font Tag (Optional)
The Font tag specifies the font to use for this text field.
Valid values include: Any UNICODE string containing less than 256 characters. The default is
Arial. See “
International Font Sample” for a LNT file using an Asian font.
It contains the following attributes: pointsizeheight, pointsizewidth, italics, wordwrap,
underline, strikethrough, mpclstyle, intercharactergap, and weight.
Note: Italics is an available attribute; however, for optimal print quality select a font that is
already italicized.
Syntax <Font pointsizeheight=”value” pointsizewidth=”value”
italics=”value” wordwrap="value" underline="value"
strikethrough="value" intercharactergap=”value” weight=”value”
codepage=”value”>Name</Font>
pointsizeheight The height point size of the font. The default is 10.
pointsizewidth The width point size of the font. The default is 10.
If pointsizeheight and pointsizewidth are not set to the same point size, the
printed characters look tall and thin or short and thick, which allows for greater
flexibility in the appearance of the font.
Note: If you set a value for pointsizeheight and set pointsizewidth to 0, the printed characters
will have optimal aspect ratio of character height-to-width.
italics Boolean value describing if the text is italicized. The default is 0. Options:
0 Not Italicized
1 Italicized
wordwrap Boolean value describing if wrapping text is enabled. The default is 0. See
“
Example Text Field with Wordwrap” for more information. Options:
0 Not enabled
1 Allows word wrap.
Note: When using wordwrap, you must specify the width attribute in the <BoundingBox> tag.
Do not use wordwrap with either the underline or the strikethrough attributes.
underline Boolean value describing if the text is underlined. The default is 0. Options:
0 Not underlined
1 Underlined
Note: Do not use underline with the wordwrap attribute.
strikethrough Boolean value describing if the text appears with a line through it. The default
is 0. Options:
0 No Strikethrough
1 Text appears with a line through it
Note: Do not use strikethrough with the wordwrap attribute.
intercharactergap An integer defining the number of points between characters. The default is 0.
