HP IIISi -Swiss Font Converting To Univers Co |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer had the Bitstream Swiss 11pt Roman 8 font and an HP LaserJet Series II printer. He recently installed the HP LaserJet IIISi driver. In any document that contained the Swiss font, the font is converted to Univers condensed. If he retrieves the document with the HP LaserJet III driver selected, it converts properly to Univers (scalable). Another customer who was using the PC ProCollection cartridge with his LaserJet Series II found that the Helvetica font converted to Univers Condensed when changing from the Series II to the IIISi printer. Solutions: The only difference between the Univers and Univers Condensed fonts is the widths of the characters. WordPerfect looks at the average PS width to determine the conversion between the two fonts. The Univers Condensed font is closer to the average width of the Swiss font than the Univers font. The Univers Condensed font doesn't exist on the HP III printer's internal fonts; that is why it converts to Univers. The work around is to unmark the Univers Condensed font for the HP IIISi driver. This is done by going into Cartridges and fonts (Shift-F7, S, E, C), selecting Built-in and backspacing over the asterisk. This problem has been reported to Development and is being considered for the next version of WP, but will not be fixed in this version. |
