{29} *1 Font
["Name"] or [Font number]
This Tag defines the box font of a text box. Parameters can either be a "FontName", in inverted
commas, or a font number. Upon exporting the box the font name will always be transferred.
*121 is equivalent to *1"Helvetica"
*120 is equivalent to *1"Times"
It is suggested that you use the font name for transfers.
¶*T3*F1*1"Times"*$Times¶*T3*x110*X210*F1*1"Helvetica"*$Helvetica¶
creates two text boxes each with a different font.
If the font name is not found, the style sheet normal is used when working with XpressTags
and a system font is used when working with the box font.
¶*T3*i5*F2*$<*f"xxTimesxx">Text¶*T3*x110*X210*i5*F1*1"xxTimesxx"*$Text¶
creates two boxes with incorrect font calls.
The text with DATAformTags for the first box contains an incorrect font name in the
XpressTag (*f"xxTimesxx") and for the second an incorrect box font (*1"xxTimesxx").
