Using PostScript Fonts
Professional-looking desktop publishing is easy with the
EPL-7500.
Your printer has
35
built-in fonts in 11 font families to help you
create exciting documents. The PostScript resident fonts listed
below can be combined to create newsletters, brochures,
presentations - whatever your special needs are. Once you choose a
PostScript driver for your printer, you should be able to use any of
the fonts resident in your printer to design your documents.
You can position PostScript fonts anywhere on the page, or at any
angle. You can even rotate them. Simply choose the fonts you
want with your application program or software commands. Your
EPL-7500
can print them in any size. See your application program
documentation for specific instructions on using different fonts.
With so many fonts to choose from, designing a document can be
a real challenge. You may be tempted to use many different fonts
and special effects simply because the
EPL-7500
can produce them,
but the final product may be inconsistent and confusing. For best
results, remember these points as you design your documents:
l
Keep page designs simple. You want a design that is both
interesting and easy to read.
l
Choose one or two font families and then vary the point size
for interest. Too many fonts in the same document can look
cluttered.
l
Establish consistent styles for clean looking documents: for
example, titles all in one font, text in another.
