will not take effect. If the font mode is 0 (the default value in the daisywheel emulation
mode), none of the attributes will take effect.
Non-executable Parameters
The fourth and subsequent parameters of the SFA command are optional, although if one
of these parameters is desired, then the preceding parameters must also be specified. The
optional parameters are used to describe downloaded fonts for selection by embedded
commands in the HP LaserJet emulation mode. The parameters can also redefine the
attributes of resident fonts. However, they do not actually change the physical
appearance of the font, only how the printing system interprets the font’s attributes.
The rotation parameter should be 0 for a portrait font or 3 for a landscape font. The
values 1 and 2 are not
normally used. You cannot change the orientation of a font with
this parameter.
The symbol set parameter identifies the font’s character set. Specifying this parameter
does not actually change the character set. The height parameter is measured in the unit
value designated by the UNIT command.
