<h3 id="rzau6tt52">TrueType fonts on OS/400® V5R2</h3>
|
|
<p>You can use TrueType fonts on V5R2 operating systems. However, there are
|
|
some differences between using these fonts on a V5R2 operating system as compared
|
|
to using the fonts on a later-level system.</p>
|
|
<p>One difference is that Print Services Facility™ (PSF) does not support
|
|
TrueType fonts on V5R2 operating systems, only Host Print Transform does.
|
|
Also, there is no resource access table available on V5R2 operating systems.
|
|
Instead, the operating system maintains index tables that map the full font
|
|
names to the actual font files stored in the integrated file system. The index
|
|
table is built for all TrueType fonts contained in these directories:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts</li>
|
|
<li>QIBM/UserData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts</li></ul><p class="indatacontent">Because there is no resource access table on V5R2 operating systems,
|
|
linked fonts and font capturing are not supported on V5R2.</p>
|
|
<p><span class="bold">Migration notes</span></p>
|
|
<p>For fonts in the /QIBM/UserData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts directory, the base
|
|
implementation on V5R3 and later-level systems functions exactly the same
|
|
as V5R2. Customers who use TrueType fonts on V5R2 and do not want to use resource
|
|
access tables do not need to change anything when they migrate to a later-level
|
|
system. However, customers can access all of the TrueType functions by using
|
|
the Font Installer for AFP™ Systems to install the fonts. Font Installer for AFP Systems
|
|
is a feature of the IBM® Infoprint® Fonts for Multiplatforms licensed
|
|
program. This program generates a resource access table when TrueType fonts
|
|
are installed, and this enables the extended functions.</p>
|
|
<p>On V5R3 and later-level operating systems, the search order for full font
|
|
names follows:</p>
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
|
<li>Search the resource access table (if it exists) in /QIBM/UserData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts.</li>
|
|
<li>Search the resource access table (if it exists) in /QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts.</li>
|
|
<li>Search all the TrueType font files in /QIBM/UserData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts.</li>
|
|
<li>Search all the TrueType font files in /QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts.</li></ol><p class="indatacontent">This lets the resource access table take precedence over the V5R2 search
|
|
method. If there is no resource access table, the old method still works.</p>
