LaserJet IIISi Printer - AFCs And Line Printe |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: When using the LaserJet IIISi printer, the Automatic Font Change (AFC) for the Compose characters (6,21; 6,22; 6,23; 6,24) for the Line Printer 16cpi font causes the spacing of the non-proportional font not to line up. The LaserJet III and the LaserJet IIID do not have this AFC. Why has this AFC been assigned to the line printer 16.67 font? Solutions: Univers Condensed font exists internally only with the HP LaserJet IIISi printer. Univers condensed is selected as an AFC for Line Printer for the Math, Math Extension, and Greek character maps (map 6, 7, and 8). WP creates a character AFC for a font when certain criteria is met. These can change depending on the character map WordPerfect is assigning. The Univers Condensed font has a large majority of the characters for character map 6, 7, and 8, and the Line printer does not. Since the Univers condensed font is scalable, it can match the point size of the Line Printer font exactly. The typeface descriptions defined for each of the fonts is also the same. The nominal width, or average width of the font is the only thing WP can use to handle the width of the proportionally-spaced fonts. The average width of the Line Printer 8.5pt font is 72/1200ths. The average width for the Univers Condensed 8.5pt font is 73/1200ths. Based on this information WordPerfect selects the character AFC correctly.
