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)),
