Problem

Symptoms: A MoreFonts font does not print if the font is selected as an Initial font, or if the font code is placed at top of document. This only occurs with HP III type printer drivers dated 04/24/92. Solutions: MoreFonts scans all data sent to the printer. If it finds text, it makes a soft font and downloads it to the printer. If the font does not change, it will continue to add characters to the soft font as needed. If a MoreFonts font is selected as an initial font or is selected as the first font on the page, it will proceed the Initialize at Start of Page string. In the initialization string is an HPGL expression, and the string was not added until 04/24/92. MoreFonts does not recognize this as being an HP code, and reads it as text instead. This string is being converted to a soft font, destroying the HPGL code that the printer would have received. MoreFonts is creating the soft font file in between the codes Esc %1B and Esc %1A. These codes tell the printer to take everything in between those codes and use them as HPGL code. Since this is done, the soft font file is not recognized by the printer. The result -- no soft font is accepted, so the wrong font prints. MoreFonts will be contacted about this problem.
