Description

Subclass marker (AcDbTextStyleTableRecord)

2

Style name

70

Standard flag values (bit-coded values):

1 = If set, this entry describes a shape

4 = Vertical text

16 = If set, table entry is externally dependent on an xref

32 = If both this bit and bit 16 are set, the externally dependent xref has been successfully resolved

64 = If set, the table entry was referenced by at least one entity in the drawing the last time the drawing was edited. (This flag is for the benefit of AutoCAD commands. It can be ignored by most programs that read DXF files and need not be set by programs that write DXF files)

40

Fixed text height; 0 if not fixed

41

Width factor

50

Oblique angle

71

Text generation flags:

2 = Text is backward (mirrored in X)

4 = Text is upside down (mirrored in Y)

42

Last height used

3

Primary font file name

4

Bigfont file name; blank if none

1071

A long value which contains a truetype font’s pitch and family, charset, and italic and bold flags

A STYLE table item is also used to record shape file LOAD command requests. In this case the first bit (1) is set in the 70 group flags and only the 3 group (shape file name) is meaningful (all the other groups are output, however).
