Accessing TROY
Fonts Using Non-
Windows
Applications
To verify that the TROY Windows font support files were properly installed on your system, demonstration
documents are provided through the TROY Printer Utility in Windows that can be printed out to visually identify
all security and barcode fonts downloaded to the printer. Make sure your TROY Security Printer is properly
setup, powered ON, and is online before printing out the Windows Security Font or Barcode Font Demonstration
pages.
T
O PRINT THE WINDOWS SECURITY AND BARCODE DEMONSTRATION PAGE ( S ):
NOTE: TROY Secure EX series printers must have the printer keylock switch set to
“Print MICR” to enable printing of the Windows Security Font Demonstration pages.
1. From the TROY Printer Utility Main Window screen, click on the printer you wish to access.
2. Type in the current administrator password in the password box at the bottom of the Main Window. If a
password is not set, then leave the password box blank.
3. From the Main Window, click on File, Print, and then click on Windows Security (MICR) Font Demo. The
printer will automatically print out the Windows Security Font Demonstration pages.
4. Compare the actual TROY security fonts (the actual fonts generated by your printing system) shown in the
right-hand column with the facsimile image of these fonts printed in the center column (a digitized image
designed to look exactly like the actual fonts correctly generated by your system – refer to the example shown
on the next page).
If the support files were properly installed, the actual TROY security and barcode fonts displayed in the right-
hand column should appear identical to the facsimile fonts displayed in the center column. If the actual fonts
do not match the facsimile fonts printed on the demonstration document (fonts not printed correctly or fonts
missing on the printout), review the installation steps in this document. If further assistance is required,
contact TROY Technical Support.
If you are using a non-Windows application to print MICR documents, the escape sequence for each font must be
programmed into the application in order to “call” each of the selected fonts. The <Esc> character is ASCII
character number 27 (hexadecimal number 1B). Refer to Section 8 –
Using TROY Fonts for the specific escape
sequence (displayed above each character map) used to call each of the TROY fonts.
