Problem

Symptoms: The customer receives two messages in Control Printer when printing: "Creating Temporary Soft Fonts" and "Imaging Graphics Bitmap Data." Solutions: The "Creating Temporary Soft Fonts" message is generated as temporary soft fonts are created and downloaded to the printer for those graphic fonts installed in the .DRS file.

The "Imaging Graphic Bitmap Data" message is caused by of one of two situations:
1.      WP is printing graphic fonts larger than the Threshold Point Size set for the Graphical Printing of HP LaserJet Fonts under Print|Setup. When the user prints a font with a point size larger than the threshold, WP bitmaps the font and sends it to the printer as a graphic image rather than creating and downloading the temporary font file.
2.      The font files for fonts that have been installed in the .DRS file cannot be found. If the location of Graphic Font Data Files is not set correctly, or if the font file is missing from the specified directory, this message will occur. When the font is used and the font file cannot be found, the characters must be created graphically from information in the .DRS file. To check for the font file that should be used for the font, users can go into Font|Setup|Select Graphics Fonts. Then, as they highlight the font, it shows the font filename and whether or not the file is found.
