APPENDIX A — INTERFACING XEROX PRINTERS

This example performs the same function as the previous example.

Multiple entries can be separated either by line endings or by commas. For

example:

¬¬(((0

11=Titan10iso-P,11=Titan10iso-L

87=LetterGothic12iso-P,87=LetterGothic12iso-L

)))

This example creates four new entries in the font correspondence tables —

two for the landscape table, and two for the portrait table.
If the GFID number of an entry already exists in the table, the new entry

replaces the old entry. For example:

¬¬(((0

87=PrestigeElite12iso-P

)))

If this entry were sent to the 5250 ALLY after the previous example, the

old font entry of LetterGothic12iso-P would be replaced by the new entry

of PrestigeElite12iso-P.
Font entries can be deleted by not specifying a font for the GFID. In this

case, the orientation character at the beginning is required, because there is

no font name from which the 5250 ALLY can derive the orientation. An

example:

¬¬(((0

P87,P11,L87,L11

)))

This example deletes the four entries from the font correspondence table

for GFIDs 11 and 87 in both portrait and landscape orientations.

Font Correspondence Limits

Each of the 5250 ALLY’s two font correspondence tables (portrait and

landscape) can hold up to 128 entries. Additionally, there is a total limit of

20K (20480) bytes. This storage is used to hold the PFSs and the GFID

tables for the port.
If the user attempts to download a font correspondence entry to the 5250

ALLY when either the maximum number of entries has been reached or

the total storage is full, the new entry will be ignored. In these

circumstances it is necessary to delete existing (and preferably unused)

entries to make room for the new entries.
