^CF — Change Default Font
Plain English
Sets the **global default** font and size for the rest of the label. Any text field that does not have its own `^A0`/`^A` override inherits the `^CF` setting. Persists until another `^CF` is encountered or the label ends.
When to use
Near the top of the label when most text should share a single font/size — `^CF` is global, `^A` is per-field. A field-level `^A`/`^A0` always overrides the active `^CF` for just that field.
Syntax
^CFf,h,w
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
f | Font: 0 (scalable) or A-V (bitmap) |
h | Default height in dots |
w | Default width in dots (optional) |

Two fields inherit `^CF`; the third field uses `^A0` for a one-off override.
