The screen fonts are created "on-the- fly," eliminating the need to use memory for traditional bitmapped screen fonts. The HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 screen font driver can only create scalable screen fonts for scalable typeface products. Windows 3.0 displays representative screen fonts for other kinds of fonts. Eight Scalable Typefaces ------------------------ Eight scalable typefaces from the CG Times and Univers families are included with HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0. These typefaces match the resident typefaces in the HP LaserJet III and IIID printers and are the source of scalable screen fonts. Both typefaces are available in regular, bold, italic, and bold italic styles. Optional typefaces are available from HP. HP Font Installer and Compatible Fonts -------------------------------------- Using the HP Font Installer, you can install the following font products for use in Windows 3.0: - Scalable typefaces - Bitmapped printer fonts: cartridge or disk-based (soft) - Scalable printer fonts: through AutoFont Support utilities - Printer Cartridge Metric (.PCM) files Disk-based (soft) bitmapped printer fonts must be in PCL format for HP LaserJet printers. Scalable typeface products must be in AGFA Compugraphic's FAIS format. All other font products require AutoFont Support files or .PCM files. PCL 5 Printer Driver -------------------- HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 includes an upgraded PCL 5 printer driver. The new driver (version 3.77) allows selections for: printer model, paper source (tray), paper size, printer memory size, Page Protection status, orientation, installed font cartridges, graphics resolution, gray scale, and number of copies.

To improve graphic image printing, three new gray scale settings are available. Try printing your graphics with the different gray scale settings to choose the one that looks best to you.
