Map Coded Font (MCF) Format 2 structured field
ACIF does not modify this structured field, and it does not map any referenced GRID values to the appropriate font character set and code page pairs. This situation might affect document integrity in the case of archival because no explicit resource names are referenced for ACIF to retrieve.
ACIF requires that FOCA fonts be named according to the suggested IBM naming conventions in FOCA font naming conventions. If the naming conventions are not followed, you might get unexpected results. For example, ACIF bases the font character rotation on the second character in the font name.
