Appendix H
Font Mapping: Single-Byte and Double-Byte Characters
Label format records with font code 9 in the b field of the Format Record header can specify any of the
following bit-mapped or scalable fonts with the associated specification in the font size/selection (eee
height) field, as shown in the tables on the following pages.
Example: 1911u4000100010A0215134<CR>
The example above will produce a printed string consisting of the two Kanji characters referenced by the
two HEX ASCII pairs A0, 21, and 51, 34, on appropriately equipped printers.
Example: 1911U4001000100P012P012<0x38><0x77><0x00>
The above example will produce a printed string consisting of the one 12 point Kanji character
referenced by the byte pair with hex values 38 and 77 on appropriately equipped printers.
Note: Double-byte hex representation character strings terminate with two null bytes and a <CR>, i.e.,
0x 00 00 0D. The Hex-ASCII representation is terminated with <CR>.
The alphanumeric portion (nn) of the scalable font specifiers, Snn, Unn, unn, numbering system is a base
62 numbering system, 0, 1, 2…8, 9, A, B, C...X, Y, Z, a, b, c...x, y, z. For scalable fonts the S designation
signifies single-byte characters while the U designates double-byte characters. The lower case U
counterpart signifies that print data in the label format record is in a hex-ASCII format. Fonts that have
been downloaded with designators of the form nn, where nn are alphanumeric, as seen in the font size
specifier (eee height) column below, may be referenced in label format records by their upper or lower
case specifiers as available. However, fonts created for double-byte access cannot be accessed using Snn
as the font designator, and vice versa, single-byte fonts cannot be accessed using Unn or unn.
Note: Downloading scalable fonts requires specifying the font ID, a two character alphanumeric. The
S, or U, u used in referencing the font within label format records is not used in the download
specification. Attempting to utilize a scalable font with an inappropriate byte-size designation,
(e.g. S on double-byte or U, u on single-byte) will have unpredictable results.
