DRAW Reference Manual

Miscellaneous Text Facilities : AVEVA Fonts

DRAW makes use of the four AVEVA font families. These can include user-defined fonts, which can be set up in ADMIN. (Refer to the Command Summary for further information).There are three text font attributes - FONT, DFON, and PFON. These are used to define the appearance of the various text strings that can appear on Drawings. These font attributes can be set to 1, 2, 3, or 4 in which case the normal version of the relevant font family will be obtained. Variations on these normal versions can be obtained by setting the font attributes to a value obtained from the table below.


	Normal			Bold
	Upward	Forward	Reverse	Upward	Forward	Reverse
1 2 3 4	11 21 31 41	12 22 32 42	13 23 33 43	14 24 34 44	15 25 35 45	16 26 36 46

For example, font 35 is variation 5 of font family 3. Variation 5 is always bold and forward-sloping. From the table it will be seen that fonts 11, 21, 31, and 41 are equivalent to 1, 2, 3, and 4. (For completeness the font attributes can also be set to 10, 20, 30, and 40 which are also equivalent to 1, 2, 3, and 4). Bold fonts are not provided for all font families. In such cases the selection of a bold option will result in the use of the appropriate normal font.
