IBM Font Class Parameters (OpenType 1.7)

This section defines the IBM Font Class and the IBM Font Subclass parameter values to be used in the classification of font designs by the font designer or supplier. This information is stored in the sFamilyClass field of a font’s OS/2 table.

sFamilyClass

Format: 2-byte signed short

Title: Font-family class and subclass.

Description: This parameter is a classification of font-family design.

Comments: The font class and font subclass are registered values assigned by IBM to each font family. This parameter is intended for use in selecting an alternate font when the requested font is not available. The font class is the most general and the font subclass is the most specific. The high byte of this field contains the family class, while the low byte contains the family subclass.

These values classify a font design as to its appearance, but do not identify the specific font family, typeface variation, designer, supplier, size, or metric table differences. It should be noted that some font designs may be classified equally well into more than IBM Font Class or Subclass. Such designs should be matched to a classification for which substitution of another font design from the same class or subclass would generally result in a similar appearance of the presented document.

Class ID = 0 No Classification

This class ID is used to indicate that the associated font has no design classification or that the design classification is not of significance to the creator or user of the font resource.
