I wrote programs that create PDFs for a health claims processing company.
I create the PDF using printer files and using AFPTOOL to first copy the
printer file to a TIFF file and then convert the TIFF file into a PDF.
The company has received a requirement to be able to provide large print
for those members who document larger print as a preference.
I have tried many approaches such as changing fonts, point size, chrsiz,
etc. But I can get the characters to only increase to roughly a point size
of 16 but no larger. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Reggie
