KX Driver Imaging 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 in Device Settings > PDL > Select 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 user-defined fonts, very small fonts (point size 1-4), or Asian fonts. Substitute with device fonts System fonts and device fonts are automatically matched based on typeface name. Matching a specific device font with a system font is desirable under these circumstances: To increase print speed and efficiency. To change a font found throughout a large document. This selection replaces the old font with the desired font. Note: GDI compatible mode does not support Substitute with device fonts. Selecting Font Settings 1 Click Fonts to open the Font Settings dialog box. 2 Select one of the methods for sending TrueType fonts, and then click OK. Font Substitution Font substitution is the process of using one font in place of another when the intended font is not available 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. In the Imaging tab, click Fonts > Substitute with device fonts > Fonts to open the Font Substitution dialog box. The System fonts list shows the fonts installed on your computer. The printing system fonts are listed in the Available device fonts list. Select the system font, and then the available device font to be substituted. If the device font does not have similar font characteristics to the system font, character spacing in the document may appear incorrect. Disabling 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.) 7-3

Disabling Device Fonts

Imaging

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,

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 in

Download as bitmaps

Downloading fonts as bitmaps provides more detail, however it creates large

file sizes. This is best suited for print jobs with user-defined fonts, very small

fonts (point size 1-4), or Asian fonts.

Substitute with device fonts

System fonts and device fonts are automatically matched based on typeface

name. Matching a specific device font with a system font is desirable under

these circumstances:

To increase print speed and efficiency.

To change a font found throughout a large document. This selection

replaces the old font with the desired font.

Font substitution is the process of using one font in place of another when the

dialog box.

The

System fonts

list shows the fonts installed on your computer. The printing

system fonts are listed in the

Available device fonts

list. Select the system

font, and then the available device font to be substituted. If the device font does

not have similar font characteristics to the system font, character spacing in the

document may appear incorrect.

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.)
