Chapter 5 - Managing Fonts, Bar Codes, and Images Adding and Removing Fonts Use PrintSet, the printer web page, a USB storage device, FTP, or SmartSystems to copy font files to your printer. Font files stored in read/write devices ("/c", "tmp:", and "usb1:") can be deleted using KILL statements. Note: The names of the font files can differ from the names of the corresponding fonts. Make sure you specify the correct font file name in the KILL statement. Creating and Using Font Aliases Font aliasing provides flexibility when moving from a legacy or competitive printer installation to an Intermec printer installation. When you use font aliasing, you do not need to change font names in a datastream, and you can adjust the width, height, and slant of a font. An alias provides a link from the font name in a datastream to a currently installed font. For example, you could create a font alias that points an Arial font to use Univers instead. To create several font aliases automatically, create a Batch Alias file and copy it to / home/user/fonts/.fontalias. The format of the file should be: "alias_1_name", "reference_font", size, slant, width "alias_2_name", "reference_font", size, slant, width You can create an unlimited number of font aliases. A font alias can be used like any other font, but its size, slant, and width can not be changed. Examples: "BODYTEXT","Century Schoolbook",10,80 "HEADLINE","Univers Bold",18,110 "WARNING","Univers",12,10,95 About Bar Code Symbologies Fingerprint supports the following bar code symbologies.
