NAME
       plfont - Set font


SYNOPSIS
       plfont(ifont)


DESCRIPTION
       Sets  the  font  used  for  subsequent  text  and symbols.  For devices that still use Hershey fonts this
       routine  has  no  effect  unless  the  Hershey  fonts  with  extended  character  set  are  loaded   (see
       plfontld(3plplot)).  For  unicode-aware  devices  that  use  system  fonts instead of Hershey fonts, this
       routine calls the plsfci(3plplot) routine with argument set up appropriately for the various cases below.
       However,  this  method  of specifying the font for unicode-aware devices is deprecated, and the much more
       flexible method of calling plsfont(3plplot)  directly  is  recommended  instead  (where  plsfont(3plplot)
       provides a user-friendly interface to plsfci(3plplot)),

       Redacted form: plfont(ifont)

       This function is used in examples 1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 24, and 26.


ARGUMENTS
       ifont (PLINT(3plplot), input)
              Specifies  the  font:  1:  Sans  serif font (simplest and fastest) 2: Serif font 3: Italic font 4:
              Script font
