B is for bold, I for Italic, T for standard. the number is the
points, and the first character indicates the font type. this is
in the Font reference guide, I believe. There are also different pel
sizes, for print quality.

Hi.
I have what is probably a basic question regarding AFP fonts. I have
dug through the manuals I can find and can't seem to get a good answer
to this. In looking at my PSF JCL member for starting a couple virtual
printers, I see in the PRINTDEV statement, CHARS=(GT18,GT12). I have
figured out these are default fonts. In another member, it is referring
to CHARS=(CB12,CB18). Can someone tell me what these fonts actually
are? I have figured out the G tells me it is a gothic font and the C is
a Courier. I assume the 12 and 18 are the point sizes (right?). What
does the second character mean in the names?
