Font problem

June 16, 2009

Q:
I’m sending a fax from a Unix application using data fields, but it appears with a font size bigger than what I need. Is there any data field or any other clue to specify the font size of a fax you are sending, without affecting all other fax sent from the application?

A:
You can set the font size with normal PCL (Laserjet) printer commands. You can find an example for that in the file Program Files\ActiveFax\Server\Sample.txt. As an alternative it would also be possible to change the default font size on the fax server with the menu Extras / Printer Emulation / HP Laserjet.

ActiveFax Font

March 19, 2008

Q:
Is there any chance to make the font available all the time. I have an application that loses the Active Fax font choice if the Active Fax printer is not the default printer. Then when I send the “@” variable they do not work. Then if I make the active fax the default printer it is not locked when I print a document to a laser printer.

A:
I’m sorry, but this is not possible for technical reasons, since the ActiveFax font is a printer internal font that is only available in combination with the ActiveFax printer.

The ActiveFax font is not available in the font selection window.

December 1, 2007

The ActiveFax font, needed to format data fields, is a printer internal font. This means, that this font is only available in combination with the ActiveFax printer. Thus you need to choose the ActiveFax printer as the current printer in your application (i.e. Winword) to make the ActiveFax font available in the font selection window.

Since the ActiveFax font is not a normal font, it is also not displayed in the list of TTF (Truetype) fonts in Windows. Some applications do not display printer internal fonts in the font selection window. In that case it is also possible to manually enter the ActiveFax font in the font selection window.
