How the computer looks for fonts

Here’s the search order your computer uses to determine which font to display
on your screen when you choose a specific size:

1. an installed bitmapped font in that size, if one exists

2. a scaled TrueType font, if no bitmapped font exists

3. an Adobe Type Manager (ATM) version of a PostScript font, if ATM is

installed and if no TrueType version exists

4. a scaled bitmap if no ATM font exists

Here’s the search order it uses to determine which font to print on your
Color StyleWriter 4500 printer:

1. a scaled TrueType font, if one exists

2. an ATM version of a PostScript font, if ATM is installed and if no

TrueType version exists

3. a scaled 72-dpi bitmap if no ATM font exists
