INTRODUCTION
EnSight draws all of its text in the graphics window using TrueType fonts. It is capable of reading and drawing most
TrueType fonts and font collections. Under Windows, it is also capable of rendering internationalized multi-byte text in
annotations, provided an appropriate font containing the necessary glyphs is selected.
To ensure portability between platforms, EnSight includes a collection of cross-platform fonts embedded into EnSight.
These include the typefaces: Arial, Courier New, Symbol, and Times New Roman. If a user restricts font usage to
these font families, resulting .els and other files will be portable. If other font families are used, EnSight may substitute
one of these (or other) fonts if it cannot find a match on the target system. EnSight will also read the installed system
fonts on Windows and Power PC-based Macs. The environmental variable CEI_FONTPATH may be set to a list of ': '
('; ' on Windows) separated directory names in which EnSight should also look for .ttf and .ttc files. This allows
the user to use their own fonts in EnSight on any platform.
