+the Lineprinter font is available only in 8.5-point size. +. +. +.P +The LaserJet font files included with +.I groff +assume that all printers since the LaserJet\~4 are identical. +. +There are some differences between fonts in the earlier and more recent +printers, +however. +. +The LaserJet\~4 printer used Agfa Intellifont technology for 35 of the +internal scalable fonts; +the remaining 10 scalable fonts were TrueType. +. +Beginning with the LaserJet\~\%4000-series printers introduced in 1997, +all scalable internal fonts have been TrueType. +. +The number of printable glyphs differs slightly between Intellifont and +TrueType fonts +(generally, +the TrueType fonts include more glyphs), +and +there are some minor differences in glyph metrics. +. +Differences among printer models are described in the +.I "PCL\~5 Comparison Guide" +and the +.I "PCL\~5 Comparison Guide Addendum" +(for printers introduced since approximately 2001). +. +. +.P +LaserJet printers reference a glyph by a combination of a 256-glyph +symbol set and an index within that symbol set. +. +Many glyphs appear in more than one symbol set; +all combinations of symbol set and index that reference the same glyph +are equivalent. +. +For each glyph, +.MR hpftodit 1 +searches a list of symbol sets, +and selects the first set that contains the glyph. +. +The printing code generated by +.I hpftodit +is an integer that encodes a numerical value for the symbol set in the +high byte(s), +and the index in the low byte. +. +See +.MR groff_font 5 +for a complete description of the font file format; +symbol sets are described in greater detail in the +.IR "PCL\~5 Printer Language Technical Reference Manual" . +. +. +.P +Two of the scalable fonts, +Symbol and Wingdings, +are bound to 256-glyph symbol sets; +the remaining scalable fonts, +as well as the Lineprinter font, +support numerous symbol sets, +sufficient to enable printing of more than 600 glyphs. +. +. +.P +The metrics generated by +.I hpftodit +assume that the +.I DESC +file contains values of 1200 for +.I res +and 6350 for +.IR unitwidth , +or any combination +(e.g., +2400 and 3175) +for which +.IR res \~\[tmu]\~ unitwidth \~=\~7\|620\|000. +. +Although HP PCL\~5 LaserJet printers support an internal resolution of +7200 units per inch, +they use a 16-bit signed integer for positioning; +if +.B devlj4 +is to support U.S.\& ledger paper (11\~in\~\[mu]\~17\~in; +in = inch), +the maximum usable resolution is 32\|767\~\[di]\~17, +or 1927 units per inch, +which rounds down to 1200 units per inch. +. +If the largest required paper dimension is less +(e.g., +8.5\~in\~\[mu]\~11\~in, +or A5), +a greater +.I res +(and lesser +.IR unitwidth ) +can be specified. +. +. +.P +Font metrics for Intellifont fonts were provided by Tagged Font Metric +(TFM) files originally developed by Agfa/Compugraphic. +. +The TFM files provided for these fonts supported 600+ glyphs and +contained extensive lists of kerning pairs. +. +. +.P +To accommodate developers who had become accustomed to TFM files, +HP also provided TFM files for the 10 TrueType fonts included in the +LaserJet\~4. +. +The TFM files for TrueType fonts generally included less information +than the Intellifont TFMs, +supporting fewer glyphs, +and in most cases, +providing no kerning information. +. +By the time the LaserJet\~4000 printer was introduced, +most developers had migrated to other means of obtaining font metrics, +and support for new TFM files was very limited. +. +The TFM files provided for the TrueType fonts in the LaserJet\~4000 +support only the Latin 2 (ISO 8859-2) symbol set, +and include no kerning information; +consequently, +they are of little value for any but the most rudimentary documents. +. +. +.P +Because the Intellifont TFM files contain considerably more information, +they generally are preferable to the TrueType TFM files even for use +with the TrueType fonts in the newer printers. +. +The metrics for the TrueType fonts are very close, +though not identical, +to those for the earlier Intellifont fonts of the same names. +. +Although most output using the Intellifont metrics with the newer +printers is quite acceptable, +a few glyphs may fail to print as expected. +. +The differences in glyph metrics may be particularly noticeable with +composite parentheses, +brackets, +and braces used by +.MR eqn 1 . +. +A script, +located in +.IR /usr/\:\%share/\:\%groff/\:\%1.23.0/\:\%font/\:\%devlj4/\:generate , +can be used to adjust the metrics for these glyphs in the special font +\[lq]S\[rq] for use with printers that have all TrueType fonts. +. +. +.P +At the time HP last supported TFM files, +only version 1.0 of the Unicode standard was available. +. +Consequently, +many glyphs lacking assigned code points were assigned by HP to the +Private Use Area (PUA). +. +Later versions of the Unicode standard included code points outside the +PUA for many of these glyphs. +. +The HP-supplied TrueType TFM files use the PUA assignments; +TFM files generated from more recent TrueType font files require the +later Unicode values to access the same glyphs. +. +Consequently, +two different mapping files may be required: +one for the HP-supplied TFM files, +and one for more recent TFM files. +. +. +.\" ==================================================================== +.SH Options +.\" ==================================================================== +. +.B \-\-help +displays a usage message, +while +.B \-v +and +.B \-\-version +show version information;
