XPAF 6.0 has the capability to dynamically convert LCDS (also known as centralized or
DJDE) fonts (.FNTs) and logos (.LGOs) to PCL or PDF. There is no longer any need to
manually pre-convert these resources with XPAF 6.0.
In order to allow for dynamic LCDS font and logo conversion, XPAF 6.0 has been
In order to allow for dynamic LCDS font and logo conversion, XPAF 6.0 has been
enhanced to use a new format of the intermediate Xerox Escape Sequence (XES) font
stored in DFONTLIB. This new “XES-like” format removes the 64K font size and 256
dot character width restrictions of the original XES format. This results in a font that
cannot be used on an XES device.
If you are still using XES devices you must disable the dynamic conversion feature by
If you are still using XES devices you must disable the dynamic conversion feature by
specifying FNTLGOCONV=M in your initialization parameter member,
XINPARM(XINSXOSF).
LCDS fonts are also used for formatting Page Format documents to PCL or PDF and

the dynamic conversion of these resources also applies to this type of conversion.
New Decentralized Character Mapping Variation DCMV60
The enhanced font conversion process no longer requires centralized fonts to be split
into different planes due to size constraints. The 224 printable character limitation
still exists.
A new Decentralized character mapping variation, DCMV60, has been provided that
A new Decentralized character mapping variation, DCMV60, has been provided that
places more characters in plane 1 than the DCMV01 mapping variation provided in
previous releases.
The source for DCMV60 is provided in XPFSAMP(DCMV60).
DCMV60 is now the default value for the OFORMAT parameter when loading LCDS

Converting existing XPAFXFI entries to use DCMV60
To avoid having to reload all your LCDS fonts into the XPAF 6.0 CFONTLIB just to
update the Decentralized Mapping Variation table to DCMV60 a utility, UFT6DCMV,
has been provided that will update all entries in the XPAFXFI table.
