Configuring Xprint V7.0 Administering fonts

6.8.3Modifying the attributes of a font

You can modify the attributes of any defined font you administer.

i

The default font GENERIC supplied with Xprint V7.0 cannot be modified, even by the Xprint V7.0 administrator.

●To be on the safe side, first display the attributes of the font you want to modify. To do this, use the xpshow -fntcommand (see section “Displaying information on Xprint V7.0 objects” on page 82).

●To modify the attributes of specific fonts, enter the following command: xpmod -fnt [selection] modifications

For selection you can either specify a list of fonts whose attributes you want to modify, or you can use the -scl“selection_criteria_list” option (see section “Selection criteria list” on page 266 in the Appendix) to define a list of criteria according to which the relevant fonts are selected. If you do not specify selection, all fonts are modified.

modifications represents a list of modifications to be made to the font(s). Each entry in this list consists of one of the options of the xpadd -fntcommand listed in the section “Adding a font” on page 152, plus a corresponding value.

Examples

–To modify the attributes of the font invoice from SansSerif to Courier and the line spacing from 4 to 5:

xpmod -fnt invoice -tp Courier -vm 5

–To modify the character pitch of all fonts with the setting “10 cpi” to 12 cpi: xpmod -fnt -scl "-hm 10" -hm 12
