Re: Picking a font

Unfortunately, we are on v5r4. That library is not included. There
is a library, QFNTCPL. A DSPLIB is 33 pages long. How do these names
relate what is used on the CRTDEVPRT command?

Hi John

On my system (V6R1), I have a library called 'RDFONT01V5'.  Inside that is an app that will print your font samples for you!

The app I ran was PRTFNTC (Print Font Catalog).  I believe that it prints *immediately* to your default printer...so...be ready!  :)

I know it because Charles Wilt answered this very same question for me back in February (thanks, btw!) .  You can still find the thread in the archives, but the link to IBM's reference page is broken now.

I then answered with
Hi Luke
I googled PRTFNTC RDFONT01V5 and found the instructions at ftp://ftp.kcs.net/Common/printing/InstallRDFONT.txt

Subject: Picking a font

Is there a page somewhere that describes the fonts available  on v5r4?

A report was printing on letter paper.  I have the printer device configured to select legal size.  But, the font did not scale to fill the page.  Object was to get the print larger.
