Symbol editing/Symbol/New
This command allows you to create a new symbol to be included in a font. The dialog box
asks you to give the following information to define the font:
Ƒ font name (max. 8 characters),
Ƒ font number (between 201 and 255),
Ƒ number for the symbol within the font (between 001 and 224).
NOTE We recommend that you do not use the first font symbol
number (001) as this is reserved for the "space" character and
is used to replace characters that are not used in the font with
blanks automatically.
A second dialog box asks you to specify the size to be applied to all of the font symbols:
Ƒ height - from 1 to 24 dots
Ƒ width - from 1 to 80 dots.
CAUTION The height of the symbol is defined when the symbol is
created. The symbol can only be printed if the printer contains
a Markem-Imaje font with a height that is equal to or greater
than the height of the symbol being created.
