Abstract
A selective calling receiver previously stores a predetermined number of calling numbers and selectively receives a message according to one of the calling numbers. The received message and its corresponding calling number are sequentially stored onto a message memory. A font data memory stores a plurality of message fonts each corresponding to a different calling number group. In the font data memory, the calling numbers are divided into a plurality of caller groups each consisting of at least one calling number. In response to the user's instruction, the font data memory is searched for a message font based on the corresponding calling number to display the message with the message font on a display.
