I have a printer file DDS that is used by an IPDS printer (actually an HP printer with an IPDS box). I would like to change it to just do AFPDS instead. I do not see why I cant do this except I have a few weird things that happen: some of my data does not print. I have experimented with this and found that if I have moved some of the lines that are not printing that have FONT or FNTCHRSET to a different record and send that to print it will come out. Are there rules for AFP on how many different Fonts or barcodes, or whatever can be in one record? they are described at the field so I am assuming that it is a record thing. So why does it work with IPDS and not AFP? Is there an easier way to make my AFP stuff work? If I make it with AFP Utilities will it work then or will I still have the same problem and have to change the programs that do the printing to write to the "new" records I have to create to get the font changes, etc? Example 1: CHRSIZ does not work with AFPDS but does with IPDS. I can switch to FONT(245) and it works for CHRSIZ(2.0 2.0) but what can I use to get CHRSIZ(1.0 2.0)? Also, do I need to make each change of font or Barcode a new record? Example 2: When going from FONT to FNTCHRSET to FONT then FNTCHRSET it seems that the FNTCHRSET in the same record does not work and I get the defaul 10 font. What are the rules using FNTCHRSET and FONT? Thanks for any help understanding this. Carolyn
