NAME

6       plfont - Set font

SYNOPSIS

9       plfont(ifont)
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Sets  the  font used for subsequent text and symbols.  For devices that
13       still use Hershey fonts this routine has no effect unless  the  Hershey
14       fonts  with  extended character set are loaded (see plfontld(3plplot)).
15       For unicode-aware devices that use  system  fonts  instead  of  Hershey
16       fonts, this routine calls the plsfci(3plplot) routine with argument set
17       up appropriately for the various cases below.  However, this method  of
18       specifying  the  font  for unicode-aware devices is deprecated, and the
19       much more flexible method of calling plsfont(3plplot) directly is  rec‐
20       ommended  instead  (where  plsfont(3plplot)  provides  a  user-friendly
21       interface to plsfci(3plplot)),
22
23       Redacted form: plfont(ifont)

25       This function is used in examples 1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 24, and 26.
