Font Selection
As mentioned earlier, the PDF417 encoder is shipped with all available printer fonts. Supported
platforms include IBM AFP, Xerox, and Hewlett Packard PCL printers.
The following tables list all of the supported platforms and printers. The font name is the name
of the font file in the distribution kit. Refer to the
PDF417 Programming Guide
for more
information on setting the code points (specifically, the PdfFontInitRender function for C/Setting
Parameters for COBOL ). Failure to set the code points in the program can cause unpredictable
output and can even cause printer reboots.
The information has been broken into two tables; one for UNIX and PC Platforms (ASCII
platforms) and a second for IBM S/370, S/390, and AS/400 systems (EBCDIC platforms).
