Font Groups

IRISPTP Font Groups are similar in concept to Microsoft Word "style" formatting. Each font group contains different text types which in turn can use different fonts, font size, colour and style.

IRISPTP is first installed with two font groups: Draft and Final.

The Draft font group is a special group - if selected IRISPTP will examine the fonts available on the printer and try to pick the simplest fonts that the printer supports. For some printers this can result in a faster print but will generally look very plain. It is not possible to rename or delete the Draft font group.

The Final font group is an ordinary group that IRISPTP creates when it is installed. It is set to use regular black 10 point Times New Roman. The font group cannot be deleted but it is possible to alter the fonts used.

Any number of additional font groups may be created and used on different report, except facsimile forms such as tax returns where strict guidelines control the use of fonts. See Font Group Maintenance for details on how to create, rename or delete font groups via the [Group Setup] button on the report output selection screen or via Font Group Maintenance in System Maintenance.
