= SUMMARY =

Pacific Data Products has two font cartridges, “Outlines 1” and “Outlines 2,” which can be used with Word version 5.00 and the HP LaserJet III series of printers. The LaserJet series III printers support the Intellifont font-scaling technology.

All of the cartridge fonts support two symbol sets: Roman8 and PC-8. In addition, CGTimes and Universe include Math8 and Legal symbol sets. The macro ‘CHARACTER_TEST.MAC’, located in MACRO.GLY, can be run to print out special characters and their corresponding ASCII codes for each font/character set available. See below for a partial listing of special characters that can be printed with Math8 and Legal symbol set.

In Microsoft Word’s Format Character menu, the character set name is listed after each font name. The font sizes available range from 1 to 127.

The printer drivers for these cartridges are located on the Pacific Outlines Word 5 and Word Perfect 5.1 disks that come with the cartridge. The disks are high density (1.2 MB) 5.25 inch, with low density (360K) 5.25-inch and 720K 3.5-inch disks available on request (call Pacific Data Products to request these disks). The printer drivers are OUTLN1.PRD and OUTLN2.PRD.

The Pacific Data Products product support phone number is (619) 552-0880.
