Asian TrueType font files are large and may image slower than bitmap fonts. The size of the font file, in bytes, is the minimum amount of memory you must have available for fonts in the printer’s downloadable fonts buffer. Due to the size of these files, you should store these fonts in flash memory.

The printer can accept TrueType fonts in UNICODE, BIG5, GB2312, SJIS, or KSC5601 character mapping. Based on your data and code page selection, the printer determines the type of encoding (UNICODE, BIG5, GB2312, SJIS, or KSC5601) to use.
