ABSTRACT:
Translation between a character encoding scheme used by an application and a font encoding scheme used by a character drawing routine may be controlled dynamically so as to accommodate multiple possible font encoding schemes. Accordingly, the range of usable fonts is greatly expanded since more than a single font encoding scheme is supported for a given locale. The process of purchasing and installing new fonts is significantly simplified since any font encoding scheme may be supported.
