<h3 id="rzau6getfnt">Purchase fonts</h3>
<p>There are several different font products that you can purchase, depending
on your needs.</p>
<dl>
<dt class="bold">IBM&reg; Infoprint&reg; Fonts for Multiplatforms (Program
5648-E77)</dt>
<dd>IBM Infoprint Fonts for Multiplatforms licensed program is
the current and recommended font product. It is best for customers who are
in one of these categories:
<ul>
<li>Those who do not already have AFP&trade; Font Collection</li>
<li>Those who want to use the Font Installer for AFP Systems to install and manage TrueType
fonts.</li></ul>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">IBM Advanced Function Printing&trade; Fonts for AS/400&reg; (Program
5769-FNT)</dt>
<dd>This licensed program is only required for compatibility with older
font technology.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">IBM AFP Font Collection for Workstations and OS/400&reg; (Program
5648-B45)</dt>
<dd>This licensed program is only required for compatibility with older
font technology.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">IBM Advanced Function Printing DBCS Fonts for AS/400 (Program 5769-FN1)</dt>
<dd>This licensed program is only required for compatibility with older
font technology.
</dd>
</dl>
<p>There are many sources of TrueType fonts. However, not all TrueType fonts
are suitable for use in Advanced Function Presentation&trade; (AFP). In general,
a TrueType font that is to be installed and referenced in an AFP system must be
Unicode-enabled. A Unicode-enabled font has these characteristics: </p>
<ul>
<li>It must contain a Microsoft&reg; Unicode subtable identified
by platform ID = 3 (Microsoft) and platform-specific encoding
ID = 1 (Unicode, UTF-16).</li>
<li>It must specify a full font name (Name ID 4) using the same encoding in
the naming table.</li></ul><p class="indatacontent">The TrueType fonts included with i5/OS&trade; and the TrueType fonts available with
the IBM Infoprint Fonts for Multiplatforms licensed program are
suitable for use in AFP. The TrueType fonts included with i5/OS are installed
with option 43 Additional fonts.</p>
