How do you properly set $iPitch in the _WinAPI_CreateFont function?

[WildByDesign]

I'm trying to learn more about the _WinAPI_CreateFont function. In particular, I'm trying to understand how to properly set the $iPitch parameter.

The help file shows:

Quote

[optional] Specifies the pitch and family of the font. The two low-order bits specify the pitch of the font and can be one of the following values:
$DEFAULT_PITCH, $FIXED_PITCH, $VARIABLE_PITCH
The four high-order bits specify the font family and can be one of the following values:
$FF_DECORATIVE - Novelty fonts. Old English is an example
$FF_DONTCARE - Use default font (Default)
$FF_MODERN - Fonts with constant stroke width, with or without serifs. Pica, Elite, and Courier New are examples
$FF_ROMAN - Fonts with variable stroke width and with serifs. MS Serif is an example
$FF_SCRIPT - Fonts designed to look like handwriting. Script and Cursive are examples
$FF_SWISS - Fonts with variable stroke width and without serifs. MS Sans Serif is an example

By default, most example functions throughout the forum use 0 for that parameter. The part that I don't understand here is the two low-order bits and four high-order bits for the parameter. I don't understand how that works for this specific parameter. My assumption is that this is different from doing a simple BitOR of the two values.

How would I set the $iPitch parameter, for example, $DEFAULT_PITCH and $FF_SCRIPT?

Thank you.

Here is the example script for _WinAPI_CreateFont from the docs as a starting point:
