Adding fonts to a PPD file

The Font Configuration dialog box lists both system fonts and

PPD/Installed fonts for your software program. The system

fonts are the fonts currently installed on your system. The

PPD fonts are those included in the PPD file of your software

program. These fonts are automatically downloaded as needed

when you send a print job.

You can add any font on your system to a PPD file simply by

selecting the system font and then choosing the Add button.

The system font is then displayed in the PPD list.

If you install any new fonts on your system and you want

those fonts accessible from your software program, you should

add them to the PPD list.

To remove any fonts from the PPD list, simply select the PPD

font and choose the Remove button

Substituting fonts

When you turn on Substitute Fonts and then print common

Macintosh screen fonts (Geneva, NewYork, and Monaco),

EpsonScript automatically substitutes one of its fonts. This

results in faster print speed and higher resolution. Be aware

that if the substituted font is significantly different from the

screen fonts, the printed output might look very different from

the way it looks on screen. For this reason, you normally

should not turn on Substitute Fonts.
