Downloading fonts
The LaserWriter 12/640 PS uses downloadable PostScript fonts, which are a
type of soft font. The PostScript printer driver automatically downloads any
Type 1 fonts from your computer’s hard disk to the printer’s memory as
needed for each document that you print. You can also use the driver to
manually download fonts to the printer’s memory when you don’t want to
download fonts for each document. Manually downloading fonts can speed
printing.
Note: The LaserWriter 12/640 PS has a set of built-in fonts that do not need
to be downloaded. These fonts are listed in Appendix D.
Whether it is better to let Windows download fonts automatically or to
manually download fonts yourself depends on the number and frequency
with which fonts are used in a document and the size of your printer’s
memory.
