Font Sizes (K Value) Inaccurate - Causes Memo |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: Under Select Printer, Edit, Cartridges and Fonts, Soft Fonts, the K value given to fonts generated by Type Director is wrong. Fonts seem to require much more memory than the value that Type Director is giving when it generates the fonts. This causes memory error problems for the user (not enough memory). Solutions: We could not duplicate this problem. If the values are wrong, we have no control over them. The user needs to contact the font company. When HP and Bitstream install fonts to WP, they put in a K value higher than the actual font size. This is to insure that WP will not download a font that will have problems fitting into the printer's memory. For example, if the font file is 10K in size, the value in WP may be 11K. True, this could result in some memory that could be used, but it is better to have that cushion than to not have enough memory in the printer to download the fonts requested. |
