Barcode and 2D Symbol Font Printing on .NET Environment
Since .NET Framework supports only TrueType fonts and Open Type fonts, the barcode and 2D
symbol fonts that are registered in the printer driver cannot be printed from an application.
Therefore, TrueType fonts are replaced with barcode and 2D symbol fonts with the font
replacement function of the printer driver. Barcode and 2D symbol fonts can be printed from
applications under .NET Framework environment by this replacement function.
The name of the print data in the application remains as a TrueType font name, but changes to
barcode and 2D symbol font when it is printed.
