Re: Large font on IPDS printer

Dear Mike,

When working with an IPDS capable impact printer, you need to use the CHRSIZ
(character size) keyword to create large characters. The character size
request places the printer into graphics mode to produce the large
characters for you. The FONT keyword can only be used to create large
characters on IPDS capable laser and thermal printers.

I have sent you a sample DDS off list as an example.

Best Regards,

/Paul
