Styles


The PAW defaults use the HBOOK vector Hershey fonts which are not so great, but gopaw can handle texts by using freetype and the .ttf fonts.

To use a freetype font everywhere you can do in your kumac:

    set VFON 62   * here 62 = use arialbd.ttf.
    set LFON 62
    set GFON 62
    set TFON 62
    set CFON 62

To have an example with/without freetype you can play with examples/gopaw/ttf.kumac:

and with Hershey:

CERN-ROOT style

The examples/gopaw/root_style.kumac shows that we can have a similar style than CERN-ROOT. The examples/gopaw/root_def.kumac (used by root_style.kumac) defines CERN-ROOT style by using the SET and OPT commands.

LHCb style

The examples/gopaw/lhcb_style.kumac shows the style promoted some time ago by LHCb when using CERN-PAW for publications.
