The CARTRIDGE statement defines the PCM file and screen-font files
associated with a given cartridge. The statement provides one or more sets
of aspect-ratio and cartridge-title parameters defining these associations.
 
Parameter         Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
aspect-ratio      Specifies the width and height of the screen font in
                  lines-per-inch. This parameter has the following form:
 
                      width:height
 
                  More than one aspect ratio may be listed by separating
                  each with a comma.
 
description       Specifies a string identifying the screen-font face and
                  other information, such as the device for which the font
                  was designed. This string should be identical to the text
                  that immediately follows the colon (:) in the DESCRIPTION
                  statement of the font resource file. Control Panel also
                  uses the DESCRIPTION statement to create an entry for the
                  font under the [Fonts] section in the WIN.INI file. The
                  parameter must be enclosed in double quotation marks.
 
screen-font-file  Specifies the name and location of the screen-font file.
                  This parameter should consist of a logical disk identifier
                  (as given in a preceding DRIVE statement) and the filename
                  of the screen-font file. If the file is not in the root
                  directory on the given disk, the full path of the file
                  should be used.
 
cartridge-title   Specifies the name of the cartridge displayed in the
                  Printer Font Installer's list box. This name should, but
                  does not need to, match the title in the PCM file.
 
PCM-file          Specifies the name and location of the PCM file for the
                  cartridge. This parameter should consist of a logical disk
                  identifier (as given in a preceding DRIVE statement) and
                  the filename of the screen font file. If the file is not
                  in the root directory on the given disk, the full path of
                  the file should be used.
