Re: CL OVRPRTF FONT(?)

Dear Guy,


If your application is being rendered on an HP PCL compatible laser printer 
using i5/OS - OS/400 Host Print Transform, you can accomplish your requirement 
by making a WSCST and adding an HP PCL command called Horizontal Motion Index 
(HMI) to a particular printer file font request or CPI request so that the 
resulting characters are spaced at 11 cpi.

If you are printing to IPDS capable printers, you would need to build or have 
built for you a custom font with characters that would be spaced at 11 cpi. To 
the best of my knowledge, IBM does not offer this font spacing in its library 
of font products for the iSeries platform.

HTH

Best Regards,

/Paul
