Fonts
Th6
LaserJet+ and LaserJet
500+
printers have several
font
features in addition
to
those
of
the LaserJet printer. These
features are:
• The ability
to
assign a
font
ID number
to
fonts (either
font
cartridge fonts
or
fonts resident on disc files). This feature
is
helpful
if
you frequently select different fonts. Once you
have assigned a
font
ID number
to
a specific font, you may
select
that
font
with a short escape sequence
(Ec(#X)
instead
of
specifying all
of
the
font
characteristics .
•
The
ability
to
download character fonts from disc files (up to
32
fonts may be downloaded and up to
16
printed per page).
• The ability
to
create new character fonts
or
to
create new
characters.
You may assign any
or
all
of
the available fonts a
font
ID
number which may be used
to
select the fonts.
Font
files, whether
or
not
they were created by HP, may be
downloaded
to
the printer
if
the correct format
is
used
The following discussion will first explain the escape sequences
used
for
font
management. Following that, several
font
management examples are provided
It
may be helpful
to
scan
the
font
management examples
to
see which
font
management
escape sequences you will need
for
a particular function. Then
you can skip
to
the explanations
of
those escape sequences
to
learn the specifics
of
each sequence involved
