FAQ

I have a lot of documents (pagedef/formdefs/overlays) that do not meet the compatibility font-naming standard. How do I map these documents to outline fonts?

In EPM you can map raster fonts to outline fonts, either by font family (byte 3-6 of the font name) or by the entire font name (byte 3-8).
The mapping by family name does not fit in if the last 2 bytes don't meet the compatibility font naming standard, where the point size is calculated on basis of byte 7 and 8 (byte 8*36 + byte 7) Please note that byte 7 '0' means 10 and 'A' means 11, 'B' means 12 and so on.
As a result, C0S0CR12 equals point size 83 (11 + 2*36) though you would probably want a 10 point 12 pitch outline.

Use the 'mapping by font name' table:

* 
* TABLE THAT MAPS SINGLE OUTLINES <> RASTER 
* 
SCALEMAP DC AL4(0) 
DC CL6'S0CR12',CL6'4200',AL2(10) MAP C0S0CR12 TO COURIER 10 POINT 
DC CL6'S0CR10',CL6'4200',AL2(12) MAP C0S0CR10 TO COURIER 12 POINT
DC AL4(0) END OF TABLE
