Temporary vs. Permanent Fonts Once downloaded, a font is automatically designated as temporary. A temporary soft font is deleted from user memory during a printer reset or when a Typeface List, a Font Printout or a self-test is performed from the printer's control panel. A soft font can be designated as permanent to prevent the printer from deleting it during a printer reset. A soft font is designated as temporary or permanent by referencing its ID number and using the Font Control command (refer to "Font Control Command" later in this chapter). Note Both temporary and permanent fonts are deleted from user memory whenever the printer's power is turned off. Switching printer languages ("personalities"), changing resolution, or changing the Page Protection setting also deletes temporary and permanent fonts from user memory in some printers (refer to the appropriate printer User's Manual for specifics). An existing font is deleted when a new font with the same ID number is downloaded. The new font replaces the existing font (whether temporary or permanent). Deleting Fonts There are several mechanisms provided by PCL font management that delete soft fonts from user memory. These include commands to delete all soft fonts, all temporary soft fonts, or an individual soft font by reference to its font ID number (refer to the Font ID and the Font Control commands described on the following pages).
