Creating a font-mapping table

To create a font-mapping table:

1. Edit the font-mapping entries in the sample font-mapping table provided in /usr/lpp/Printsrv/samples/aokfontmap.samp.
   Tip:

   Before editing, copy the sample font-mapping table to another directory.

   _______________________________________________________

2. In the font-mapping table, specify as many MAPFONT statements as there are raster fonts you want to map to outline fonts. See Font-mapping table format for the format of the MAPFONT statement.

   _______________________________________________________

3. Set the file permissions so that the font-mapping table is readable by everyone.
4. Set the AOP_FONTMAP_TABLE environment variable in the Infoprint Server transform configuration file (aopxfd.conf) to the file path for the font-mapping table.
   Note:

   Set AOP_FONTMAP_TABLE for each transform class that uses font mapping.

   _______________________________________________________

5. Restart the Infoprint Server Transform Manager. For example, use the AOPSTOP and AOPSTART JCL procedures to stop and restart the Transform Manager:

   START AOPSTOP,OPTIONS='-d xfd'
   START AOPSTART

   _______________________________________________________

6. Check for error messages in the transform's stderr file or in the Infoprint Server common message log. If you find any error messages, fix the errors and restart the Transform Manager. For more information about how to find the transform message logs, see Finding the transform stderr file.
