Configuring Character Range |
Configuring Character RangeThe Char Range group allows you to specify the range of character glyphs that will be encoded in the output font. When the ASCII option is selected, the range of characters is fixed to ASCII-0 through ASCII-127, which is the normal range for English language applications. Font Capture also allows you to specify a custom range of characters to be encoded. When you select the Custom option, the Configure... option becomes active, allowing you to fully define the range of glyphs that will be recorded in the output file. It is often the case that a particular font is only used to display a certain range of characters; for example you may define one font that will be used only for displaying numbers. In this case, you do not need or want to encode the entire ASCII character range in the output file. Instead, you can enter a limited character range by selecting the "Custom" button, and entering the range of characters in the Range Configuration dialog. The First Char and Last Char fields allow you to define the start and ending characters to be encoded.
