Problem

Solutions: Customers who are going back into Type Director to create more fonts are encountering problems. This is a problem with Type Director (refer to memo P51_1125) and they are currently working on a solution. In the mean time, here is a temporary Answer:

When the user makes the fonts for the second time, they need to be sure that the new fonts are at the END of the list in the "Make Fonts" panel in the Type Director program. If they are at the beginning or somewhere in the middle of the list, it causes an error when modifying the font metrics in our .ALL file. This will cause the fonts (both old and new Type Director) to print with incorrect spacing and overlapping. The solution is to go in to Type Director and make the new fonts again, making sure that the new font names are only at the END of the list in the "Make Fonts" panel. After doing this, HP recommends renaming the .PRS file and reselecting the printer.

Customers are welcome to call Hewlett-Packard if they are encountering these problem.
