Using fonts with Windows

Before printing, you need to make sure the fonts specified in your document are installed in the printer or are set up correctly in Windows. If you request a font in an application that is not resident in the printer, or is not correctly installed in Windows, the text is printed in the Courier typeface. Or, to use fonts that are not resident in the printer, do one of the following:

Use a font downloader supplied with your font package to download the desired font to the printer.

Edit your WIN.INI file so the Windows driver automatically downloads the fonts you need as part of a print job. Refer to your Microsoft Windows documentation for details on this procedure.

Some font packages automatically update the PostScript port entries in your WIN.INI file when you reinstall the fonts. Refer to the font package’s documentation for instructions.

For more information on using fonts with Windows, request a document catalog from HAL or EuroHAL, the Tektronix automated fax systems. Refer to “Using the automated fax systems” on page 6-2 for instructions on using these systems.

Printing font samplers

Note If you are using QuickDraw GX and System 7.5, you can print the fonts sampler from the Tektronix Phaser 350 GX printer driver.

1.Install the sampler and utility files from either the Printer Software for Macintosh diskette or the printer’s CD-ROM; see Chapter 2 for details.
