The following information explains how to use and choose fonts for a job. It also covers various resident and non-resident fonts and their availability.

How to choose fonts

Although document source files can specify almost any image on a printed page, images that contain letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols are common enough to require a special mechanism for dealing with them, similar to movable type. This mechanism is the font. The DocuSP controller supports Adobe PostScript Type 1 and Type 3 fonts, PCL scalable and bitmap fonts, and TrueType fonts.

Fonts

The most important thing to remember is that the font used to create a document must also be available to the DocuSP controller.

NOTE: DocuSP supports the euro character. Most font families include the euro character.

At the DocuSP controller, a font can exist in three forms:

Resident fonts A resident font is an internal font that is permanently stored on the DocuSP controller and is always available.

Soft fonts Soft, or optional, fonts are a typeface that are loaded as needed at the DocuSP controller. This allows the DocuSP controller to be customized with special fonts, such as logos, or other special font applications.
