# Subparameter f

By giving subparameter f, you can specify a scalable font for each Japanese TeX font. You can give more than one font specification, and in this case the specification is read in written order. For fonts which you don't specify the scalable fonts, the default scalable fonts will be used. The specification format is given below.
fname=shotai[G][H][F][S][O][;vh_ratio[;weight[;dots;dots;...]]]
name
This is the font name in TeX (assigned to ^s), for example min, goth. You must remove the font size (usually in pt) from the font name.
shotai
This the typeface number in LIPS III/IV, such as Mincho Type 80, Kaku Gothic Type 81, Maru Gothic Type 82, Textbook Type 83, or Block Style Type 84.
For ESC/Page, this is Kaku Gothic Type Kanji 9, Mincho Type Kanji 10, Maru Gothic Type Kanji 66, Textbook Type Kanji 67, Block Style Type Kanji 68, or Semicursive Type Kanji 69.
There are additional options:
G Specification for the pseudo Gothic (For LIPS III/IV, one dot increase in the width. For ESC/Page, the line width is one.)
HSpecification for the pseudo Gothic (For LIPS III/IV, two dots increase in the width. For ESC/Page, the line width is three.)
F Specification for the fill pattern for LIPS III/IV. For ESC/Page, specifying 20% screen pattern in
O in the outline font
S Specification for shadow printing
G and H cannot be simultaneously specified. Other options can be specified at the same time.
vh_ratio
specify "the vertical-to-horizontal ratio of a font" x 1000.
If you give zero for this option, a scalable font is not used for the specified font. In addition, if you specify dots option, the value for corresponding font will be default values. In this case, if there is a following f option, the value of f description is used. If nothing follows, the default values are used.
If you give "1" for vh_ratio, a scalable font is not used for items specified in dots.
weight
Default 22 (Mincho 22, Kaku Gothic 22, Maru Gothic 2)
dots
The fonts of the dot size specified in this option is skipped and not applied in current subparameter f description. For the fonts skipped here, the next specification of f is referred.
You can specify a range such as dots-dots.
In the specification of f, options after shotai can be omitted. (The default is used.) For example,
fgoth=82;1000;2;fmin=80;1000;22;16-24;32
fgoth=80H;1000;22;44;fgoth=80OS;2000
