FONTLIB

Identifies the directory or directories in which fonts are stored. Specify any valid path. The PDF indexer searches for fonts in the order that the paths are listed. If a font is referenced in an input file but not embedded in the file, the PDF indexer attempts to locate the font in the directory or directories listed on the FONTLIB parameter.

If you purchase additional fonts and install them on the system, the additional fonts can be found at indexing time by specifying the location with the FONTLIB parameter. For example, when Adobe Acrobat is installed on a Windows system, it includes fonts that can be found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\<Adobe version>\Resource\Font or C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\<Adobe version>\Resource\CMap. These fonts can be uploaded to an AIX or Linux system and placed in a directory of your choice and then specified with the FONTLIB parameter.

Required?: No

Options and values

The pathlist is a string of one or more valid path names.

For example, on AIX or Linux:

FONTLIB=/opt/Adobe/Fonts:/arsload/fonts

or on Windows:

FONTLIB=C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\<Acrobat version>\Resource\CMap

or on IBM i:

FONTLIB=/QIBM/ProdData/OnDemand/Adobe/Fonts

The PDF indexer searches the paths in the order in which they are specified. Delimit path names in AIX, Linux, and IBM® i with the colon (:) character. Delimit path names in Windows with the semicolon (;) character.

A maximum of six paths can be specified.
