Chapter 5. IBM AFP Fonts for ASCII Data
When you specify a coded font name with the chars parameter of the acif
command or the line2afp command, the font name is limited to four characters,
excluding the two-character prefix.
| Figure 19 provides a list of the IBM Core Interchange Fonts for use with
| unformatted ASCII input data. Because these fonts have eight-character names, the
| table also provides a list of six-character short names. (Reminder: PSF for AIX
| must be installed if you want to use documented examples that contain pathnames
| indicating PSF.) These coded fonts are installed in the /usr/lpp/psf/reslib directory
| when the psf.acif installation option is installed for PSF 2.1 for AIX. However, for
| InfoPrint Manager, the ACIF component is installed automatically. The installation
| program also creates the symbolic links of the eight-character names that
| correspond to the six-character names. You may use these short names,

without

| the prefix, to satisfy the four-character limitation for specifying font names with
| the chars parameter.
