The first thirteen of these fonts are required for WebCGM. The Microsoft Office CGM import filter
implements the 13 standard fonts listed above, and also ’ZapfDingbats’ and ’Script’. However, the script
font may only be accessed under the name ’15’. For more on Microsoft import filter font substitutions,
check its help file which you may find here:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Cgmimp32.hlp
and/or its configuration file, which you may find here:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Grphflt\Cgmimp32.cfg
In the set term command, you may specify a font name which does not appear in the default font table.
In that case, a new font table is constructed with the specified font as its first entry. You must ensure
that the spelling, capitalization, and spacing of the name are appropriate for the application that will
read the CGM file. (Gnuplot and any MIL-D-28003A compliant application ignore case in font names.)
If you need to add several new fonts, use several set term commands.
Example:
set terminal cgm ’Old English’
set terminal cgm ’Tengwar’
set terminal cgm ’Arabic’
set output ’myfile.cgm’
