Set Font (SFT)<br />
The SFT record contains the number and the interline spacing (ILS) of a<br />
font or super font.<br />
The SFT record sets all line and character spacing values. The Y line<br />
spacing is set to the ILS value in this record, and the other three spacing<br />
values are set to 0. The font and ILS specified in this record become the<br />
current font and ILS and remain in effect until these values are specified<br />
by another record.<br />
1-2 2 Record Length The length of this record, in binary, including the record length<br />
field. For example, hex 00 06 specifies a record length of 6 bytes.<br />
3 1 Cyclic Record Count A binary cyclic record count using modulo 256. Each record in the<br />
job is counted, starting with hex 01 for the first record. The 255th<br />
record is hex FF and the 256th record is hex 00. This count is used<br />
to verify record sequence.<br />
4 1 Control Code A binary code that identifies the record type. A value of hex 2C<br />
identifies the SFT record.<br />
5 1 Font Number The font assignment number, in binary, for the font to be selected.<br />
The range is 0-254. For example, hex 16 specifies a font number<br />
of 22.<br />
6 1 Interline Spacing (ILS) A binary number that specifies the number of additional dot rows of<br />
space to be generated following each line printed with this font.<br />
The range is 0 - 255. This ILS becomes the current ILS and is used<br />
until another ILS is specified in a subsequent record.<br />
The value in this field overrides the ILS values in all previous<br />
records.<br />
