TrueType Font Samples

TrueType Font Samples

The following figures show roman versions of the four TrueType font families included with IDL. The character sets for the bold, italic, and bold italic versions of these fonts are the same as the roman versions.

The SHOWFONT command was used to create these figures. For example, to display the following figure on the screen, you would the command:

SHOWFONT, 'Helvetica', 'Helvetica', /TT_FONT

For more information, see SHOWFONT.

Note

The following font charts are numbered in octal notation. To read the octal number of a character, add the column index (along the top) to ten times the row index. For example, the capital letter "A" is octal 101, and the copyright symbol is octal 251.
