I have a text file. I have a fax software that ignores my font and prints it with variable proportion fonts that I do not want. My questions are - What is the esc seq for courier 8? How do I add this to my text file and where (I tried putting it at the top fo the file and it didn't work)?
Here is the solution the Fax people gave someone else:
"When you send a text file to a printer without any font formatting info, the printer will print the page using it's default font. This is true of the RightFAX conversion engine as well. The default font for RightFAX is a proportional space font. If you wish to have your text file print out in Courier, you will need to include a PCL-5 escape code at the beginning of the text file which instructs the receiving printer to use the Courier font. The PCL-5 escape code for Courier 10 point font is: {ESC}E{ESC}(s4099t0b0s12h0P
