Downloading and managing printer fonts

The DocuColor includes 136 PostScript fonts; for a complete list, see Appendix B,
"Font List." In addition, two Adobe Multiple Master fonts are included and are used
for font substitution in PDF files.
Before printing a PostScript or EPS file containing fonts that are not resident on the
DocuColor hard disk, you must download the fonts manually.
You cannot use Downloader to download TrueType fonts.
Printer fonts and Macintosh screen fonts
Like all PostScript fonts, the fonts included with the DocuColor come in two forms:
printer fonts and screen fonts. The printer fonts are installed permanently on the
DocuColor's hard disk. The screen fonts, which are included with the DocuColor,
should be installed on Macintosh computers. If you are using these fonts in documents
you print on a LaserWriter, they are probably already installed. If not, you'll need to
install them yourself. See Getting Started for instructions.
Occasionally, you may want to use PostScript (Macintosh) or Adobe Type 1
(Windows) fonts that are not included with the DocuColor. If so, you'll need to install
both the screen fonts and the printer fonts on your computer. To do this, follow the
instructions from the font manufacturer.
Downloading printer fonts to the DocuColor
In general, each time you print from within a Macintosh application, the application
automatically downloads any fonts used in your document that are not already
installed on the DocuColor, as long as the printer fonts are installed in your System
Folder. These fonts remain in the DocuColor only until your document has printed. If
you print the same document again, your application must download the fonts again.
If you regularly use one or more fonts from Macintosh or Windows applications that
are not already installed in the DocuColor, you can save time by downloading them to
the DocuColor's hard disk with Downloader. Fonts you download to the DocuColor's
hard disk remain installed until you remove them using Downloader, no matter how
many times the DocuColor is turned off and on. You'll probably want to download
fonts you use on a regular basis to the DocuColor's hard disk.
