Font Settings A computer font is a data file containing a set of glyphs (visual representations of textual elements), characters, or symbols. Common terms for fonts are: Outline fonts, in contrast to bitmap fonts, are defined as a set of mathematical lines and curves. An outline font is more easily scalable (designed to display and print clearly at any point size) than a bitmap font. Bitmap fonts define each character as a pattern of pixels (the smallest resolvable rectangular areas of an image). Such fonts are not easily scalable and distort when reduced or enlarged. Native fonts are the basic or original fonts installed with the computer operating system. TrueType fonts are the native fonts used by Microsoft Windows. TrueType fonts are a type of scalable outline fonts. TrueType has long been the most common format for fonts on Microsoft Windows. System fonts are the primary fonts used by the operating system. They are typically accessed through an application interface or through a common font dialog box. Device fonts are stored either permanently or temporarily in the printing system memory. Font Settings Options In the Font Settings dialog box, you can specify how TrueType fonts are sent to the printing system. The chosen method affects the speed and quality of the print job: Download as outlines This method is best suited for large documents or print jobs using multiple fonts and font sizes. Print speeds are faster because of the optimization features in this setting. The repetition of similar font data sent to the printing system is reduced, thereby increasing the print speed. Print speed is not increased when using Asian fonts such as Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, because of the large amount of font information used for these particular fonts.
