IPS APPLICATION MIGRATION

If you plan to convert your continuous form documents to cut sheet format, make sure that you use the 300 pel version for the best resolution quality.

Core interchange fonts

IBM distributes an additional set of fonts, known as core interchange fonts, which consist of Courier, Helvetica, and Times New Roman. These fonts are based on the Adobe Type Manager (ATM) Type 1 format. If you no longer wish to use Sonoran or Compatibility fonts, you should replace them with the core interchange fonts.

Core interchange fonts are available in both 240 and 300 pel resolution. If you plan to use these fonts for printing to DocuPrint IPS printers, make sure that you use the 300 pel version for the best resolution quality. If you plan to use a DocuPrint 180 IPS, this recommendation does not apply.

Data 1 fonts

The Data 1 fonts are fixed pitch fonts at 12.3 cpi used with early AFP applications. These were the recommended fonts for use when converting line printer stock tab applications to 8.5 by 11 inch paper. Data 1 fonts are distributed in 240 pel resolution.

IBM now distributes PSF with the Gothic font, GT13. This font replaces the existing Data 1 fonts. You may change your application to reference this font, or to reference the 300 pel version of the D224 Data 1 font.

It is recommended the customer use Core interchange fonts over Sonoran fonts in order to achieve compatibility with other print environments where Adobe fonts are used (i.e. Windows, Macintosh environments).

Outline fonts

Outline fonts contain the instructions on how to draw the font rather than the raster image. Because of this, outline fonts are printer resolution independent. They can be purchased in the IBM AFP Font collection.

The DocuPrint IPS printers support both single- and double-byte outline fonts.

240 versus 300 pel libraries

Because both types of font resolution files may use the same file names, Xerox recommends that you store your 240 pel and 300 pel fonts in two separate libraries. We also recommend that you place the following fonts in a separate library:

any fonts that you have created or modified

fonts you purchased from a third party

special fonts, such as the Xerox E13B MICR fonts, that you received from Xerox.

Placing these fonts in a separate library will prevent any of your existing fonts from being overwritten if they have the same name as these fonts.
