Installing and setting up font support

IPS Gateway User's Guide (5/2002)

OS/400 (iSeries) setup

You must set several OS/400 parameters for resident outline font support.
If you do not set these parameters properly, jobs submitted from OS/400
expecting resident outline fonts may fail or print blank pages. If your host
is an AS/400 and you require resident outline font support, the
recommended setup is:
• On the OS/400 host, set the Resident Font parameter in the PSF
Configuration object to *YES.
• In IPS Gateway, ensure Enhanced Font Support is set to Enabled.
• In IPS Gateway, load the AFP fonts.
To load AFP fonts and enable Enhanced Font Support:
Step 1. Open a Solaris terminal window.
Step 2. Insert the IBM AFP font collection CD. The CD should mount as:
/cdrom/cdrom0
Step 3. Enter this command on the command line of the terminal window:
/opt/XRXdocuprint/ipds/loadfont
Or, if the CD mount path is different than the path specified in step 2, enter
this command:
/opt/XRXdocuprint/ipds/loadfont -c mount_path
The fonts are loaded on the printer controller and converted for use by
IPDS jobs. A message should appear verifying that the fonts have been
loaded from the CD. If a message does not appear, verify the mount path
of the CD.
Step 4. Exit IPS Gateway by selecting Exit from the IPS Gateway System menu.
Step 5. Restart IPS Gateway by selecting IPS Gateway from the DocuSP System
menu.
IPS Gateway Enhanced Font Support is now Enabled, which is required
to run the sample provided to verify correct installation of font support. If
you will not be using Enhanced Font Support, disable it after running the
verification job.
