Download as bitmaps

Downloading fonts as bitmaps provides more detail, however it creates large file sizes. This is best suited for print jobs with user-defined fonts, very small fonts (point size 1-4), or Asian fonts.

Substitute with device fonts

System fonts and device fonts are automatically matched based on typeface name. This function increases print speed and efficiency. It is useful for changing a font used throughout a large document, by replacing the old font with the desired font.

Note: GDI compatible mode does not support Substitute with device fonts.

Select one of the methods for sending TrueType fonts, and then click OK.

Font Substitution

Font substitution is the process of using one font in place of another when the intended font is not available to a printing system. Font substitution may be critical for output of documents to printing systems that are not well supported by a large font inventory.

Setting Font Substitution

To set values for font substitution, follow these steps.

1 In the Imaging tab, click Fonts, then select Substitute with device fonts > Fonts button that opens the Fonts Substitution dialog box.

The System fonts list shows the fonts installed on your computer. The Available device fonts list shows the printing system fonts.

Select the system font, and then the available device font to be substituted.

Click OK to save your settings. If the device font does not have similar font characteristics to the system font, character spacing in the document may appear incorrect.

Disable Device Fonts

In some cases, the printing system substitutes fonts even if you send the TrueType fonts as outline fonts or bitmap images. Select Disable device fonts to prevent substitution of device fonts for TrueType fonts.

This option also improves portability of printable data. (If cleared, device fonts may not match when sent to a different printing system.)

Some Adobe applications have device font limitations. To overcome these limitations, select Disable device fonts. Device fonts are normally visible in the application font lists as printer icons next to the font name, unless there are equivalent system fonts, in which case the “TT” TrueType icon remains.

Disabling Device Fonts

To disable device fonts, follow these steps.
