The workbook font table contains at least five FONT records. FONT records are numbered as follows: ifnt = 00h (the first FONT record in the table), ifnt = 01h, ifnt = 02h, ifnt = 03h, ifnt = 05h (minimum table), and then ifnt = 06h, ifnt = 07h, and so on. Notice that ifnt = 04h never appears in a BIFF file. This is for backward-compatibility with previous versions of Microsoft Excel. If you read FONT records, remember to index the table correctly, skipping ifnt = 04h.
