RE: AFPDS - How to print white on black

As suggested, a page seg or an overlay will work just fine if the data is static. If the data is variable, you'll want to use a fixed pitch inverse font. A normal proportional font that's just been flipped into inverse will sometimes to kerning and justification, so I've seen 1 pel white lines show up between characters. The iSeries does come with standard with one inverse AFP font. CDEFNT X0GR10 (There's quite a few others with different code pages) or FNTCHRSET C0D0GR10. Both should be in QFNTCPL. It is a gothic 10 pitch at 240 pel density. Printed at 240 in AFP, it looks ok. It will print in PCL, but will get scaled to 300 and the inverse characters will get filled in a bit. Better if you've a 300 pel density version you can use. Look for it by doing a WRKFNTRSC FNTRSC(*ALL/C0D0GR10) OBJATR(FNTCHRSET) and an option 5 to see the pel density.
