Example

You would enter:

AFPCFW32 /c=C0FATIN0 /t=T1DOC037 /x=X0DATIN0

In this example, AFPCF creates an AFP coded font file called X0DATIN0.FNT.

To print using this coded font, all of these files must be resident on the printer. On z/OS, it should be placed in a PDS which is available to the PSF procedure. On a Novell print server, it is must be installed into the coded font group within PSF2.

To use this coded font for printing with Documaker Server, enter the name of the coded font file (without the FNT extension) into the Coded Font File field under AFP Properties on the Font Properties tab in Studio’s Font manager.
