DBCS font files

In addition to the server-supplied DBCS font tables, the server also provides DBCS font files. These DBCS font files are physical files which contain frequently used double-byte characters.

When using the character generator utility, you can use the characters in these files as the base for a new user-defined character. These files are supplied with read-only authority as they are not to be changed. If you do not use character generator utility or the IBM® Advanced DBCS Printer Support for iSeries™ licensed program, you can delete these files to save space. They all exist in the QSYS library.

The following DBCS font files are distributed with the DBCS national language versions of the OS/400® licensed program. They are used as a reference for the CGU and the iSeries IBM Advanced DBCS Printer Support for iSeries licensed program.
