Adding Fonts Used by Graphics
In .eps, .drw, and .cgm graphic formats, it's possible that a font within these files may not appear in PDF output, even though the graphic file has a properly defined font. There are three approaches for handling fonts within graphics:
• Confine fonts used in these graphics to the basic PDF 14 (Helvetica, Courier, Times-Roman, Symbol, and their variants), which are handled correctly.
• For fonts other than the basic PDF 14, embed the fonts in your .eps, .drw, and .cgm file . Embedded fonts are also handled correctly.
• For fonts other than the basic 14 that can't be embedded, use the procedure for font configuration that follows.
If working with the PTC ALD engine, make the required changes in Arbortext-path\pstill.
If working with the FOSI engine, you can copy the Arbortext-path\pstill directory to another location before making changes. If you do, set the APTPSTILLPATH environment variable to the path of the alternate location.
To Add PFA or PFB Fonts
1. In a command prompt window, navigate to the Arbortext-path\pstill directory.
2. Run the batch file SetPath.bat in the command window, from this directory. This file extracts the path to this \pstill directory.
3. If you have copied the \pstill directory elsewhere, navigate to that location.
4. Run instfonts.exe from the same command window as you ran SetPath.bat.
5. To add fonts, place PFA or PFB files in the PSFonts subdirectory. Then update the font files by entering:
instfonts UPDATE
The script updates the special font files used by PStill.
You can install a TTF file if it's not protected against conversion. Check your font license to see if it is allowed.
To Add TTF Fonts:
1. In a command prompt window, navigate to the Arbortext-path\pstill directory.
2. Run the batch file SetPath.bat in the command window, from this directory. This file extracts the path to this \pstill directory.
3. If you have copied the \pstill directory elsewhere, navigate to that location.
4. Run instfonts.exe from the same command window as you ran SetPath.bat.
5. Install a TTF font by entering:
instfonts TTFFULLINSTALL full-path-to-TTF-file postscript-name
or, you can enter:
instfonts TTFINSTALL full-path-to-TTF-file postscript-name
instfonts UPDATE
The PostScript name is the name referenced in the .eps, .drw, or .cgm file. The name is case-sensitive.
To Create Fonts for the Basic 14 PDF Fonts:
1. In a command prompt window, navigate to the Arbortext-path\pstill directory.
2. Run the batch file SetPath.bat in the command window, from this directory. This file extracts the path to this \pstill directory.
3. If you have copied the \pstill directory elsewhere, navigate to that location.
4. Run instfonts.exe from the same command window as you ran SetPath.bat.
5. Create font files for the basic PDF 14 fonts by entering:
instfonts CREATE
