When a font is downloaded with a document, all the font
requirements are embedded in the actual source file. If this font
is not available at the DocuSP controller, the downloaded
information is used to process and print the document. Although
it is useful, it also creates a much larger file size.

Font download option

Downloading Commercial Fonts from the Network allows fonts to
be downloaded to the DocuSP Controller from both Mac or PC
platforms. Supported application programs for font downloading
are as follows: PC Platform - Adobe Type On Call; Apple
Macintosh Platform - Adobe OCF, Marisawa, and Font Works
However, the font download on a queue is designed specifically
for the Appletalk gateway and is usually associated with
Japanese (double-byte) or Chinese type font sets. Applications
in the FujiXerox marketplace utilize the Appletalk two-way
protocol to poll the printer and then download the massive
character sets needed in these markets. In the U.S.
marketplace the typical font loading mechanism is via hard drive
via Administration. The use of English fonts via specific
applications (e.g, Adobe has some) via AppleTalk is not
precluded but is certainly not the norm nor the target
marketplace.

Resident Fonts

The DocuSP controller comes with a wide variety of fonts that
are available when creating a document.
NOTE: If you are unsure of the availability of a font, always
consult with your print organization management to determine
which fonts are currently loaded on the DocuSP controller.
PostScript Resident Fonts
The PostScript Type 1 typeface families listed in Table 7–1 are
scalable, which means that all point sizes are supported, even
intermediate point sizes. These include the typefaces that make
up the LaserWriter IINTX basic font set, plus additional Type 1
fonts supplied by Xerox.
