Adobe Type Cartridge Fonts Printing Slowly
DocumentID: 601757
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 1:29:20 PM

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Even though the Adobe Type cartridge was in the printer, WordPerfect was downloading the fonts as soft fonts instead of pulling them from the cartridge. This used all printer resources and caused the print jobs to print more slowly. Solutions: This occurred because the Adobe Type cartridge I and II were not installed properly.

The user corrected this by following the steps below:
1.      Type PTR at the WP DOS prompt.
2.      Retrieve the .ALL file modified by the Adobe installation program.
3.      Press Enter on the name of the printer being used.
4.      Press Enter on Fonts.
5.      Mark all of the Adobe Type Cartridge I (or II) fonts under the resident font group.
6.      Delete the load and unload string from each font. If this is not done, users may receive an inconsistency error in the PTR Program.
7.      Go to the printer resources area (under Font) and set the resources back to 0K.

Note: Adobe suggests marking the fonts as resident (mark with an asterisk). However, not all of the fonts can be marked.
