Using Fiery Downloader
Occasionally, you may want to use Adobe Type 1 (Windows) or PostScript (Mac OS)
fonts that are not included with the ColorPASS. If so, you will need to install both the
screen fonts and the printer fonts on your computer. To do this, follow the instructions
from the font manufacturer.
Downloading printer fonts to the ColorPASS
In general, each time you print from within a Mac OS application, the application
automatically downloads any fonts used in your document that are not already
installed on the ColorPASS, as long as the printer fonts are installed in your
System Folder. These fonts remain in the ColorPASS only until your document has
printed. If you print the same document again, your application must download the
fonts again.
If you regularly use one or more fonts from Windows or Mac OS applications that are
not already installed in the ColorPASS, you can save time by downloading them to the
ColorPASS hard disk with Fiery Downloader. Fonts you download to the ColorPASS
hard disk remain installed until you remove them using Fiery Downloader, no matter
how many times the ColorPASS is turned off and on. You’ll probably want to
download fonts you use on a regular basis to the ColorPASS hard disk.
Before you download PostScript or EPS files with Fiery Downloader, make sure that all
fonts included in your file are installed on the ColorPASS or embedded in your file;
otherwise the text in these fonts will not print correctly and may not print at all. For
PDF files, font substitution occurs automatically for fonts not installed on the
ColorPASS. Two multiple master fonts (a serif font and a sans serif font) stored on
the ColorPASS are used exclusively for substitution with PDF files.
