provides true reprographics capabilities, including stapling and stitching, inserting, and
z-fold finishing on 11-by-17-inch forms.
Together these new print capabilities allow you to create output from your critical
applications that is consistent in appearance, easy to distribute and read, and
communicates more effectively with your customers.
• Bidirectional languages support
AS/400 support includes updates for the bidirectional (BiDi) languages. The
enhancements are:
– A series of transformation routines for support of logical versus visual ordering.
Culturally correct BiDi language support requires that the flow of text, left to right or
right to left, be determined by the character entered or displayed at the workstation or
printer device. The data must be stored in DB2/400 (or any file system) in the
sequence the characters were entered and not how they were displayed.
– Additional BiDi CCSIDs
Print Services Facility/400 Enhancements in V4R5
At V4R5, Print Services Facility/400 (PSF/400) includes a CD-ROM kit at no additional cost
that provides consistent fonts for printing on 240 dpi or 300 dpi printers using raster fonts, or
on any AFP printer that supports outline fonts. Included on the CD-ROM are the Helvetica
and Times New Roman typographic typefaces. The typefaces provide support for high-quality
printing with international language capabilities, including support for the euro currency sign.
Double-byte fonts for printing Japanese, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese are not
on the CD-ROM.
