Downloading files and fonts
You can download a variety of file types, as well as fonts, from the Command
WorkStation to the GA-1040. These files and fonts can be located anywhere on the
network or on an external device connected to the Command WorkStation computer.
You browse to locate the files and fonts, select them, and add them to a list of items to
be downloaded. You can also specify a limited number of print option settings for files
that you download (see page 2-14).
To download fonts, the Direct connection must be used. If the Direct connection is
not currently published in Setup, see the Configuration Guide for instructions on how
to publish it.

You cannot download TrueType fonts. If you use TrueType fonts in Windows,
you can print them by converting them to Adobe Type 1 fonts. To do this with the
PostScript printer driver on Windows 95/98 or PCL printer driver on Windows 95/98
or Windows NT 4.0, click the Fonts tab in the Properties dialog box and set up the
Font Substitution Table as necessary.
