Installation and Setup
NOTE: The AFP font collection product number has changed from
5648-113 to 5648-B45. Although Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server
IPDS can still use the original CD supplied under 5648-113, IBM
now ships two separate CDs under the 5648-B45 product number.
The two CDs are Fonts for OS/400® (part number LK2T-9270-01)
and Fonts for AIX®, OS/2®, Windows® NT, and Windows® 2000
(part number LK2T9269-01). Only the LK2T-9269-01 part number
is supported by Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS. Ensure to
specify the correct part number when ordering the font collection.

Fonts are converted for use with IPDS jobs and stored on the
printer when the fonts are loaded. Although the fonts reside on the
printer, they cannot be viewed using the Xerox FreeFlow® Print
Server Font Manager. They can be viewed using the Manage
Fonts capability on the IPS Manager. A sample job is provided to
verify that the resident outline font support is properly installed on
the print server. To add or remove the fonts, refer to the IPS
Manager on-line help.

A default resident outline font is provided for instances where the
requested AFP font is not resident or the default is specifically
requested. This default font cannot be changed. Enhanced font
support can be enabled for host environments that expect resident
outline font substitution for raster fonts.

Enhanced Font Support
The Enhanced Font Support feature is an extension of the printer-
resident outline font support in Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server
IPDS. Most hosts download required raster fonts. This feature is
most beneficial when using the i5/OS® (System i) host
environment with resident outline fonts. The i5/OS® (OS/400®)
host expects resident outline font support to include all font types
and expects the printer to resolve font substitution requirements.
No distinction is made between raster font and outline font
requests. This feature may also be beneficial to other host
environments for solving font errors.

•
Enabled — When Enhanced Font Support is enabled, if the
host requests a raster font, Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server
IPDS substitutes an equivalent resident outline font if one is
available. If the host requests a font for which there is no
resident outline font match or equivalent, the default resident
outline font is used.
