Typically, the \select- +fontset markup is placed in the front of your document. The format of this +markup is + +\selectfontset{catalog name}{user's reference name}{leading between lines} + +where catalog name is the system name for that font set. (Complete lists +of the catalog names can be found by going to the TEXT1 help menu, or by +looking in the Font Catalogs.) The user's reference is a name of your own +devising. This name, when prefaced with a backslash will give you access to +that font set. The leading is the interlineskip specification. + Users of typewriter printers use different \selectfontset markup, which +offers "standard", "underscore" (for italic), and "bold" monospaced faces. +These are the only fonts available to such printers. + Each font set includes the following nine faces, each of which is called +by adding a backslash in front of the name, or using the abbreviation: +\roman (\rm), \bold (\bd), \italic (\it), \typewriter (\tt), \caps (\cc), +\mathitalic (\mi), \symbol (\sy), \extension (\ex), and \bolditalic (\bi). +Not all font sets have all nine faces available. If a particular face is +not available, a warning message will be printed. + + ã|Example:ã% +After entering the \selectfontset, + +\selectfontset{cm11}{eleven}{default} +\eleven + +each time \eleven is specified, you would be using the Computer Modern font +set at a 11 point size (cm11). The third parameter ("default") indicates +that TEXT1 will use the default value for \interlineskip, in this case 13 +points. Then, whenever you switch to bold (\bd) you would get Computer +Modern bold at a 11 point size. If you were to specify \it you would get +Computer Modern italic at 11 points. + + ã|Example:ã% +Consider this example for switching from 9 point to a 8 point size. +The \eightpoint is set with \interlineskip{9pt} instead of the default +\interlineskip{10pt}, leaving less space between lines. + +\selectfontset{cm9}{ninepoint}{default} +\selectfontset{cm8}{eightpoint}{9pt} +\eightpoint + +\centerline{\ninepoint\bd Sociogeology} +\vs{12pt} +\centerline{\it by Achilles Chert} +\vs{12pt} +"Does the absurd dictate death?" asks Albert Camus, + ++-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +| | +| Sociogeology | +| | +| by Achilles Chert | +| | +| "Does the absurd dictate death?" asks Albert Camus, | +| | ++-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + + ã|Notes:ã% +Again, not all font sets have all nine faces available.
