POSTSCRIPT

see the Generic MICR Fundamentals Guide and the “MICR printing”” chapter in the Guide to Configuring and Managing the System.

DocuPrint NPS is capable of processing any legal Type 0, Type 1, or Type 3 font. Fonts of any of these types may be included in a document when it is sent to DocuPrint. Type 0, Type 1 and Type 3 fonts may also be installed on the system using the font installation utility.

Note: Only Type 0 OCF fonts are supported. Type 0 CID fonts are not supported, even when downloaded.

The DocuPrint PostScript interpreter does not use the “additional metrics” entry in a font dictionary.

PostScript font substitution error messages appear on the “JOB MESSAGES AND ERRORS” page only when the requested font is not present.

DocuPrint NPS uses Courier when a requested font is not available.

Loading fonts

DocuPrint NPS accepts downloaded legal Type 0, 1 or 3 fonts through the standard means used on other PostScript devices for downloading fonts. Type 0, Type 1, or Type 3 fonts may be loaded permanently on the system by the system administrator using the font installation utility. This method ensures that the desired fonts are available on the system and saves time later by avoiding the repeated transfer of fonts through the network.

Note: Only Type 0 OCF fonts are supported. Type 0 CID fonts are not supported.

Caution: Downloading fonts with a PostScript file is discouraged because printer performance may be degraded significantly. Instead, install the desired fonts on the controller, then reference them from within the PostScript file.

User-defined fonts

User-defined fonts can contain bitmaps or define the shape of characters through PostScript operators (lineto, curveto, fill). User- defined bitmap fonts are not portable across different output devices. You may notice a marked difference in the quality of rendering for bitmap fonts as printed on different laser printers. The differences are attributable to device-dependent features such as resolution, shape of device pixels, and other characteristics. For further information on these characteristics, see “Scan conversion details” in this chapter.
