Installation and setupLoading IBM AFP resident outline fontsDocuSP IPDS provides the ability to load and use printer-residentAFP scalable outline fonts. These fonts are loaded from the IBM AFPfont collection CD, which is purchased separately. The AFP fontcollection product number for AIX and OS/2 is 5648-B45.NOTE: The AFP font collection product number for AIX and OS/2changed from 5648-113 to 5648-B45. DocuSP IPDS supports both ofthese product numbers and both CDs contain the correct set of fonts.Fonts are converted for use with IPDS jobs and stored on the printerwhen the fonts are loaded. Although the fonts reside on the printer,they cannot be viewed using the DocuSP Font Manager. They can beviewed using the Manage Fonts capability on the IPS Manager. Asample job is provided to verify that the resident outline font support isproperly installed on the printer controller. To add or remove the fonts,refer to the DocuSP IPS Manager on-line help.A default resident outline font is provided for instances where therequested AFP font is not resident or the default is specificallyrequested. This default font cannot be changed. Enhanced fontsupport can be enabled for host environments that expect residentoutline font substitution for raster fonts.Enhanced font supportThe Enhanced Font Support feature is an extension of the printer-resident outline font support in DocuSP IPDS. Most hosts downloadrequired raster fonts. This feature is most beneficial when using theOS/400 (iSeries) host environment with resident outline fonts. TheOS/400 expects resident outline font support to include all font typesand expects the printer to resolve font substitution requirements. Nodistinction is made between raster font and outline font requests. Thisfeature may also be beneficial to other host environments for solvingfont errors.Use the following information to decide whether or not to disable theEnhanced Font Support feature:• Enabled — When enhanced font support is enabled, if the hostrequests a raster font, DocuSP IPDS substitutes an equivalentresident outline font if one is available. If the host requests a font forwhich there is no resident outline font match or equivalent, the defaultresident outline font is used.• Disabled — When enhanced font support is disabled, no fontsubstitution occurs. Requests for fonts that are resident are honored,and all other fonts will be downloaded by the host. The defaultresident outline font is used only when explicitly requested by thehost.Xerox DocuSP IPDS User Guide 2-5
