6.8.1Adding a font

i

The possible attributes of a new font depend on the PCL of the target printer. The supported attributes can be displayed with the command xpshow -pclpcl_name -di LONG (see section “Displaying information on Xprint V7.0 objects” on page 82).

There are two possible ways of defining a new font and adding it to the system: you can either define a new font from scratch or you can copy an existing font and modify the relevant attributes in this copy.

Defining a completely new font

●Check whether the PCL of the printer on which the jobs are to be printed with the new font supports the desired attributes:

xpshow -pcl pcl_name -di LONG

●Add a new font to the system with the following command: xpadd -fntfont_name attributes

where font_name is the name of the object in which you save the desired font attributes.
