Typeface statement

The typeface statement defines a typeface and gives it a label. Each statement has the following syntax:

TypefaceFonts typeface-label

Name typeface-name [ Symbol ] [ Proportional ] [ Serif ] [ Translates translate-label ] font-height-section-clause-list | scalable-font-height-section-clause

EndTypeface

The typeface may be a symbol typeface and/or a proportional typeface and/or a serif typeface, but note that:

• if Symbol is not included in the statement, then the typeface is normal

• if Proportional is not included in the statement, then the typeface is monospaced

• if Serif is not stated then the typeface is sans-serif.

The font heights available in the typeface are defined in the font-height-section-clause-list for a non-scalable typeface, or in the single scalable-font-height-section-clause for a scalable typeface.

A font-height-section-clause has the following syntax:

FontHeight

Height font-height

Normal normal-font

Bold bold-font

Italic italic-font

BoldItalic bold-italic-font

Command command-string

EndFontHeight

A scalable-font-height-section-clause has the following syntax:

ScalableFontHeight

HeightMin min-font-height

HeightMax max-font-height

HeightDelta font-height-delta

Normal normal-font

Bold bold-font

Italic italic-font

BoldItalic bold-italic-font

Command command-string

EndScalableFontHeight

All font heights are measured in twips.

Fonts are defined for each style for any font height of a given typeface.

normal-font, bold-font, italic-font, and bold-italic-font are all font-height-labels defined in previous font information statements.
