Windows operating systems since Windows 2000 have been running with UTF-16 as their

internal encoding scheme. Most application development programs running in Windows

however use UTF-8 as the text encoding scheme. UTF-8 has greater adoption and has

fewer variations to encode data. It uses 8 bit chunks to encode text. UTF-16 uses 16 bit

chunks of data. More environments can use the UTF-8 and is the preferred encoding

format for more programs, applications, and web browsers.

Many characters are shared between languages and can have minor affect on the

displayed character when using a single font for all languages. The Southeast Asian

languages (CJK and CJKV character sets) can exhibit these minor variations. These

Southeast Asian languages, such as Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean and

Japanese, share the HAN script. The Unicode Standard unified some of the characters

into single code points for the various languages. The characters in the script have the

same meaning in each language, but some of the glyphs are slightly different. A common

English example is color versus colour. The problem can be solved with locale-specific

fonts, thus the four versions of the Andale font are available for the printer. For most

printing applications, the issue is minor.

Selecting Fonts

Select a font that supports the languages required for the printing application. You may

also need to select fonts to display print characters (screen fonts) in your design and

application development environment. Keep in mind that certain fonts require certain

options.

A bitmap font is the set of characters in a specific point size. A bitmap usually has a high

level of quality for that specific point size.

A scalable font offers high quality at any point size since it is created from a set of outlines.

The high font quality over many point sizes comes with a trade-off since scalable fonts

also generally have a much larger file size.
