HECK THE SETTINGS FOR BOTH
Consult the Lexmark Forms Composer documentation to ensure that the Workflow properties for the data stream
have been properly configured.
For information on configuring network settings, see the documentation that came with the printer.
C
HECK THAT FONT MAPPING HAS NOT BEEN ALTERED IN
The fonts.dat file in the Forms Composer directory specifies which fonts will be used for font families with
non-standard names. The format for the information contained in the fonts.dat file follows the convention font
name, regular, bold, italic, bold italic. These entries specify which fonts Forms Composer will
use under which circumstances.
For example, an entry for the Bookman font family in the fonts.dat file might read Bookman, Bookman,
Bookman Demi, Bookman Italic, Bookman Demi Italic, meaning that for all instances of Bookman
in boldface, Forms Composer will use the font Bookman Demi, and so on.
Note: The fonts.dat file only specifies usage for font families with non-standard names. Thus, a font such as Courier
that uses Courier, Courier Bold, Courier Italic, and Courier Bold Italic would not be listed.
To check or alter the fonts.dat file:
1
From the Forms Composer directory, open fonts.dat using a text editor.
2
Make any necessary changes to the file.
3
Save the file as fonts.dat into the same directory.
C
HECK THAT FONT MAPPING HAS NOT BEEN ALTERED FOR THE PRINTER
Much like Forms Composer, the Forms and Bar Code Card relies on font mapping to specify which fonts are used
under which circumstances. In this case, the information is contained in the manager.upr file that resides in the
Forms Manager directory. When you add a printer to the Forms Manager, the manager.upr file is written to it.
To check or alter the manager.upr file for a particular printer:
1
From the Forms Manager\Fonts directory, open manager.upr using a text editor.
2
Make any necessary changes to the file.
3
Save the file as manager.upr into the same directory.
4
Delete the manager.bak file in the same directory.
5
From Forms Manager, delete the printer and its associated files.
6
From Forms Manager, add the printer you just deleted.
Note: See the Forms Manager documentation for more information on adding and deleting printers.

Form did not merge as expected
