The description of a soft font can be changed.

4=Delete:

Delete a soft font. This will also delete the corresponding member from the apf3812/font file. Note that you cannot delete a soft font, if it is specified to be auto downloaded.

5=Display:

Displays a soft font. This will prompt you for what code page to use, and then open up the PCL Viewer, SwiftView on a PC showing a sample of the soft font. Note, that the current version of SwiftView does not support True Type Fonts.

6=Print:

Prints out a sample of the soft font. You are prompted for which code page, output queue and form type to use.

8=Dsp. Attributes:

Shows the attributes of the soft font e.g. pitch and height. For True Type Fonts it will also show you the type face used. The type face should be referred to, when creating font numbers using this soft font.

9=Download:

This function gives you the possibility of downloading soft fonts to HP-printers or printers emulating a HP-printer via AS/400 spool entries.
