DY43969.
7.2.2.2
Making Fonts Eligible for Capture on a Mainframe
Note:
The procedures/documentation below are for OS390/MVS/PSF platform. The following are the
software release requirements for font capture feature within this platform. (For details on font
capture with PSF refer to the PSF Customization Guide, Program Number: 5655-B17)
OS390/MVS 2.4 or later
PFS for MVS 2.2 or later
Note
:
Earlier releases may also support "Font Capture". For details - check your "PSF Customization
Guide".
There are basically 3 steps involved regarding font capture as follows:
1.
Display current font marking status.
2.
Mark fonts for capture.
3.
Send job from host to printer with the font and font character set you want printer to capture.
Fonts on the host can be marked either "PUBLIC", "PRIVATE", or "UNMARKED". In order for the
printer to capture fonts as resident the fonts must be marked "PUBLIC" on the host. Fonts marked
"PRIVATE" are only temporarily downloaded and are removed from printer by the host. "UNMARKED"
fonts are treated the same as if they were marked "PRIVATE" and will not be captured as printer resident
fonts.
Detailed examples of the three steps are shown below.
Note
:
If you need to make TrueType fonts eligible for capture, you should probably use the Font
Installer for AFP Systems.
