If your document contains a 2-byte TrueType font with the same name as a Type 1 font resident on the printer, QuarkXPress will access the font on the printer when printing. Any glyphs will print at the resolution determined by the printer. NOTE: Your text may reflow when this substitution occurs if the font metrics of the Type 1 font are different than the metrics of the TrueType font.

If your document contains a 2-byte Type 1 font that is resident on the printer, QuarkXPress will access the font on the printer when printing. Any glyphs will print at the resolution determined by the printer. To be resident on the printer, a font must either be in the printer's ROM or on a hard drive directly attached to the printer. If a Type 1 font in your document is not resident on the printer, QuarkXPress will send a screen image of the glyphs to the printer.

Although QuarkXPress cannot subset and embed 2-byte fonts, other applications can. One such application is Adobe Acrobat Distiller 4.0 or later. NOTE: For instructions on using Adobe Acrobat Distiller to create a Portable Document Format (PDF) file from an East Asian version of QuarkXPress, please see below: "How can someone who does not have East Asian language resources or fonts print my document?"

If neither your X server nor your X font server supports you can try one of the TruType font servers: xfstt (http://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/fonts/) or xfsft (http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/home/jec/programs/xfsft/ .

Linux Xprt build from http://xprint.mozdev.org/'s source supports TrueType fonts out-of-the-box (starting with the 008 development tree; xprint.mozdev.org's releases <= 007 do not support TrueType fonts) and and does not require any special actions. Sun's Xprt on Solaris (/usr/openwin/bin/Xprt) has TrueType font support out-of-the-box and does not require any special actions.

moment (version 0.28) unfortunately not. This is much asked feature and will be present in next version of gnome-print.

Like Roman fonts, there are two primary formats for 2-byte fonts: TrueType and Type 1. A selection of 2-byte TrueType fonts are included with East Asian operating systems and language kits. These include East Asian versions of Mac OS, 1-byte language versions of Mac OS with East Asian language kits, East Asian versions of Windows, or Windows 2000 with East Asian language resources installed.

Yes, but the document will be converted to that East Asian version of QuarkXPress. A message will display stating, "This document is in 1-byte format and will be converted to 2-byte format in order to be used by this version of QuarkXPress." If you save the resulting document, you won't be able to open it with a non-East Asian language version of QuarkXPress. It's a good idea to make a duplicate of your non-East Asian document before you open it in an East Asian version of QuarkXPress.

Yes, but only with the use of third party XTensions software. Currently, documents saved in an East Asian (2-byte) version of QuarkXPress cannot be opened directly by non-East Asian (1-byte) versions of QuarkXPress or QuarkXPress Passport. However, there are third party XTensions software, such as MarkzTools available from Markzware, that will let you accomplish this.

The same or later edition of an East Asian version of QuarkXPress as you used to create the document. The same East Asian Mac OS or 1-byte Mac OS with appropriate language kit(s) as you used to create the document, and the same fonts as you used to create the document.

Make sure that in the PC Setup (BIOS) that your Parallel Port (LPTx) is set to a Standard Centronics/Parallel Port. If you don't have a selection for Standard make sure that you do NOT have it set to ECP or EPP. Our ports are standard Parallel/Centronics Ports. If you have any devices, such as a switch box or a software key in-between the printer and the PC, do the following: turn all of your equipment off, disconnect these devices, turn everything back on and then try again.

Another person or a service bureau can print a PostScript file you create. If you give the PostScript file to someone who has a PostScript downloading utility, they can print the file without using an East Asian version of QuarkXPress. However, they will still need the proper fonts to correctly print the document. It is a good idea to contact the recipient beforehand to find out their specific requirements before creating the PostScript files.

While XFree86 does not, at the time of writing, natively support TrueType fonts, there is a number of third party solutions. Some information about these options is included below. The XFree86 project is not responsible for any of these; please send any inquiries about them to relevant newsgroups or, eventually, to their authors.

If you're using the TEXT option in MasterWorks, there is a check box option on the TEXT PROPERTY box labeled "TTF". Check that box if you want MasterWorks to display your system TrueType fonts. You can then select and create lettering from those TrueType fonts found on your system. You may also digitize TrueType fonts yourself by using the File > Import TTF option to bring the text into MasterWorks as artwork segments. This happens because the .jpg file is a bitmap image or raster file.

AutoPunch is not suitable for digitizing TrueType fonts. There are plans to release an optional HyperFont add-on for the Futura? program.

Most people naturally associate TrueType fonts with text. Arial, Courier New and Times New Roman are all examples of standard TrueType fonts containing text. There is, however, another standard TrueType font called Wingdings that contains symbols instead of text. Typing ‘abc’ produces symbols rather than text. We use a similar principle when producing a logo as a TrueType font.

The structure of your QuarkXPress document is not directly relevant to Atomik Roundtrip as it takes its structure from the imported XML. Therefore as long as the content you require is in your XML document, a change in the QuarkXPress document structure should not effect Atomik Roundtrip.

We do not generate these fonts when PDFs are produced with OCR turned on. These fonts require Unicode text embedding while we currently support only ASCII text embeddings. However, if one of these fonts is already embedded in the PDF document, the text layer (and the ability to search on it) is maintained by PdfCompressor.

Another person or a service bureau can print a Portable Document Format (PDF) file you create. Creating a PDF file requires the use of Adobe Acrobat Distiller 4.0 or later. This is a separate software product not supplied by Quark. Follow the instructions for the product, ensuring that in the Settings> Job Options > Fonts tab you check Embed All Fonts, check Subset All Embedded Fonts, and set threshold to Below: 98%. If you have QuarkXPress 4.

What You Need to Know About OpenType - The Facts about OpenType Fonts and their role in Desktop Publishing

Many sources will tell you that TrueType fonts—a technology developed by Apple Computer in partnership with Microsoft—are buggy and unstable, and indeed, some are. But in our experience, the problems are isolated to a few bad apples (no pun intended) that we rarely see. We always try to accommodate our customers' files as best we can. So, our feeling is that if you have to use TrueType fonts as opposed to Type1, so be it.

Open the "Fonts" control panel, and click "Add". Then, look for the font files (extension *.TTF) where you copied or unpacked them. Select them, and click OK. You may install several fonts at the same time, simply by selecting them. Windows 95 requires a slightly different procedure. Open the "Fonts" folder you will find in the Control Panel located within "My Computer" icon. Then, simply copy the TrueType font into it. This type of file is generated by Windows 3.xx when a new font is installed.

Postscript fonts consist of two files, a screen font and a printer font. As it is used today it is a format developed by Adobe and adopted by other font foundries. It is used primarily by high-end imagesetters who prefer it because the relationship between screen image and printed output is more reliable. In most cases you need Adobe Type Manager to use Postscript fonts effectively. TrueType fonts consist of a single file which contains both the screen and printer versions of the font.

Your PSW 2.00a as it is now, without the Option, digitizes TT fonts in the lettering part of the software with a Complex Fill step satin or satin stitch. With Complex Fill stitches, you only have one stitch inclination. With step satin fills, this may give an adequate finished result, but usually not as pleasing as the built-in fonts. With Satin fill stitches you can have very long stitches, which are easy to catch and snag.

Adobe PostScript® Type 1 is a worldwide standard for digital type fonts (International Standards Organization outline font standard, ISO 9541). It was first developed by Adobe Systems for use in PostScript printers. Although Adobe is a leader in the design and manufacturing of Type 1 software and maintains the standards for Type 1, hundreds of companies around the world have designed and released more than 30,000 fonts in the Type 1 format.

When printing the same document to both a 300 dpi device and a 100 or 200 dpi device, you may frequently see a difference in font size. Though the fonts are scaleable, the scaling will only be to the nearest dot. A TrueType character rendered to 37 pixels tall on a 300 dpi DeskJet, will be 24.7 pixels tall to be the same size on a 200 dpi fax. Since only an integral number of pixels can be used, 24.7 must be rounded to either 24 or 25 pixels.

Yes, QuarkXPress 5 can save in 5 or 4 format. QuarkXPress 6 can save in 6 and 5 format. Both QuarkXPress 5 and 6 can open QuarkXPress 3, 4, and 5 documents. Only QuarkXPress 6 can open version 6 documents. This means you do not have functioning ODBC drivers either partially or not at all. Please check you have the correct ODBC driver/s installed, click here to download ODBC drivers, or source them from alternative ODBC driver vendors.

Regular fonts are designed primarily to be printed at high resolution. Pixel fonts are designed at low resolution especially for screen display. When you view a regular font on the screen, you are seeing an approximation of what will appear on a printed page and it is usually compromised because of the screen's relatively low resolution.
