Conversion Process
29
The character chart contains the font glyphs’ preview and their position in
the currently selected encoding. Each character has a caption with its
Unicode index. To see the code and the name of the particular
character, just move the mouse cursor to the character’s cell:
To change the encoding in the preview, use the Codepage pop-up
menu at the bottom of the window. Note that by changing the codepage in
the source or destination character chart preview you also define the
source or destination encoding for conversion (see the next section for
details).
To get access to all the possible codepages in the Codepage pop-
up menu, uncheck the checkbox to the right of the menu. The Codepage
pop-up menu will contain not just Windows or Macintosh codepages, but
all codepages from the Program Files/Common Files/FontLab/Codepage
and Program Files/Common Files/FontLab/TransType Pro/Codepage
directories on your hard disk.
With the help of the TransType font preview feature you can easily define
the appropriate conversion encodings for each font in the Source list.
 Note: You cannot set different encodings for different fonts in the same
Macintosh suitcase or PC font family. When you set the encoding for one
font in a suitcase (family) you set it for all the fonts in the suitcase (family).
