Loading Xerox double-byte character set (DBCS) fonts
The InfoPrint XT process that loads Xerox DBCS fonts is different from the process
that it uses for single-byte fonts. InfoPrint XT does not generate the AFP character
sets, coded fonts, and code pages for the Xerox DBCS fonts. You must provide a
set of double-byte AFP fonts that you use in place of the Xerox fonts. These fonts
must be AFP outline fonts that fully conform to the MO:DCA FOCA standards; see
Data Stream and Object Architectures: Font Object Content Architecture (FOCA)
Reference, S544-3285. You copy the AFP outline fonts to the appropriate AFP
resource directory before you actually load the Xerox DBCS fonts.
During the load process, InfoPrint XT maps each Xerox DBCS font to an AFP
coded font. It uses an AFP coded font name of XZxxxxxx. xxxxxx is the name of
the corresponding Xerox DBCS font. For example, if you load the HST25P.FNT
Xerox DBCS font, InfoPrint XT maps it to the XZHST25P AFP coded font. To use a
different AFP coded font name, you must create a manual correlation table that
maps the Xerox DBCS font name to the AFP coded font that you want to use. See
“Creating manual correlation entries for double-byte Xerox fonts” on page 53.
To load Xerox DBCS fonts:
1. Generate a resource group by loading all JDL, CME, PDE, STK, and TST
resources first. You can use the common group or you can specify a group
name that you choose.
2. Copy the AFP DBCS outline font files to the AFP resource directory for the
resource group.
3. If the AFP coded font name does not match the XZxxxxxx naming convention,
you must create a manual correlation table.
4. Use the pdxtloadres command to load the Xerox DBCS fonts. See “Using the
pdxtloadres command to load Xerox resources” on page 42.
Loading order for Xerox resources by resource type
You can load a single Xerox resource or you can load groups of Xerox resources.
For groups, you can load resources that are all the same type, such as all fonts, or
resources of different types. When you mix the types of resources, InfoPrint XT
loads them in a specific order. This is because some resources, such as forms, can
require you to load other resources first. Xerox form resources often require fonts.
The information returned from the load process lists the order.
