55-16 Managing Print Jobs Downloading and managing printer fonts The DocuColor includes 136 PostScript fonts; for a complete list, see Appendix B, "Font List." In addition, two Adobe Multiple Master fonts are included and are used for font substitution in PDF files. Before printing a PostScript or EPS file containing fonts that are not resident on the DocuColor hard disk, you must download the fonts manually. You cannot use Downloader to download TrueType fonts. Printer fonts and Macintosh screen fonts Like all PostScript fonts, the fonts included with the DocuColor come in two forms: printer fonts and screen fonts. The printer fonts are installed permanently on the DocuColor's hard disk. The screen fonts, which are included with the DocuColor, should be installed on Macintosh computers. If you are using these fonts in documents you print on a LaserWriter, they are probably already installed. If not, you'll need to install them yourself. See Getting Started for instructions. Occasionally, you may want to use PostScript (Macintosh) or Adobe Type 1 (Windows) fonts that are not included with the DocuColor. If so, you'll need to install both the screen fonts and the printer fonts on your computer. To do this, follow the instructions from the font manufacturer. Downloading printer fonts to the DocuColor In general, each time you print from within a Macintosh application, the application automatically downloads any fonts used in your document that are not already installed on the DocuColor, as long as the printer fonts are installed in your System Folder. These fonts remain in the DocuColor only until your document has printed. If you print the same document again, your application must download the fonts again. If you regularly use one or more fonts from Macintosh or Windows applications that are not already installed in the DocuColor, you can save time by downloading them to the DocuColor's hard disk with Downloader. Fonts you download to the DocuColor's hard disk remain installed until you remove them using Downloader, no matter how many times the DocuColor is turned off and on. You'll probably want to download fonts you use on a regular basis to the DocuColor's hard disk.
