Creating manual correlation entries for Xerox EBCDIC fonts

IBM Infoprint XT for z/OS
GI11-9492-01

Correlation table entries for EBCDIC Xerox fonts are similar to entries for SBCS fonts. However, you can only correlate an EBCDIC font to an AFP coded font. Add the EBCDIC entry to the same tab.mft file that has any SBCS entries you require. The syntax for an EBCDIC font entry is:

E XName A2ETable CFont

Where:

E
Specifies that the entry is an EBCDIC font.
XName
Specifies the name of the Xerox font in uppercase characters and without the .FNT extension.
A2ETable
Specifies the name of the ASCII-to-EBCDIC translation table that Infoprint XT uses. Unless instructed otherwise by an IBM service representative, this value is X2AFP.
CFont
Specifies the name of the AFP coded font to use in place of the Xerox font. For example, XZEFMT6.
This is an example of an entry for an EBCDIC font in the tab.mft table:
E EFMT6 X2AFP XZEFMT6

If you require AFP EBCDIC outline fonts for use with double-byte Xerox fonts, contact your marketing representative for more information. You can also use AFP EBCDIC outline fonts from other sources. Those fonts must fully conform to the MO:DCA FOCA standards; see Font Object Content Architecture Reference, S544-3285.
