Using a TTF font in a PRTF DDS file

I'm trying use my own font when printing with DDS in a
PRTF file.

A FRMATU 38 POSITION( .5 .0)
A FONTNAME('ZAFCHAMI' +
A (*POINTSIZE 16.0) +
A (*CODEPAGE
KDICHANGES/PCL5CMDS))

The font name is: ZAFCHAMI.TTF
I think I have the *Codepage wrong but I don't know
what it should be.

I have copied the file ZAFCHAMI.TTF
into the IFS in both of these folders:
/QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts for IBM supplied
fonts.
/QIBM/UserData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts for user fonts.

I have recreated the index file with this cmd:
DLTUSRIDX USRIDX(QUSRSYS/QGSTTFIDX)

Has anyone been successful in using their own TTF font?

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing
wrong?

Thank you,

Gary Kuznitz
