Imaging 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. Allow native download This method improves text quality and increases print speed by converting TrueType fonts to Adobe Type 42 font format. This feature is available when KPDL is selected as the PDL. Download as bitmaps Downloading fonts as bitmaps provides more detail, however it creates large file sizes. This is best suited for print jobs with custom fonts, very small fonts (point size 1-4), or Asian fonts. Substitute with device fonts Font substitution is the process of using one font in place of another when the intended font is unavailable to a printing system. Font substitution may be critical for output of documents to printing systems that are not well supported by a large font inventory. Standard PostScript fonts are available for substitution. GDI compatible mode does not support this method. Disable device fonts In some cases, the printing system substitutes fonts even if you send the TrueType fonts as outline fonts or bitmap images. Select Disable device fonts to prevent substitution of device fonts for TrueType fonts. This option also improves portability of printable data. If cleared, device fonts may not match when sent to a different printing system. Some Adobe applications have device font limitations. To overcome these limitations, select Disable device fonts. Device fonts are normally visible in the application font lists as printer icons next to the font name, unless there are equivalent system fonts, in which case the "TT" TrueType icon remains. Selecting Font Settings 1 In Imaging > Fonts, select one of the methods for sending TrueType fonts. Printer Driver 8-3
