You can print it on printers that do not support the PT2 tower if the printer is attached to the iSeries system, because the PT2 data stream is converted to the corresponding PT1 data stream if necessary. However, you can not print it on printers that do not support PT2 tower if the printer is attached to systems other than the iSeries system, because the PT2 to PT1 conversion is not supported. There are two kinds of fonts. The first kind of font resides in the printer and is specified with the font and character identifier. You can specify this kind of font by specifying 1 for the Font type prompt on the Change Source Overlay Font display or the Change PFD Definition Font display. The other kind of font resides on the iSeries system that the printer is attached to as resident fonts. The printer, when it requires a font, issues a font download request to the system for the required font or fonts. After this request, the server downloads the fonts to the printer. These fonts are specified with coded font name or a pair of the code page name and the character set name. You can specify the font by selecting 2 or 3 for the Font type prompt on the Change Source Overlay Font display or the Change PFD Definition Font display. Not all printers support both kinds of fonts. If the resource contains a font that is not supported by the target printer, the resource cannot be used. For example, you cannot use the first kind of font (printer resident) on the 3820 printers. You may use a printer even though you specify an incompatible font, if the printer is attached to the iSeries system, because fonts are substituted if necessary. However, you can not print it on the same printer if the printer is attached to systems other than the iSeries system, because the font substitution is not supported. It is your responsibility to verify that the fonts you specified are substituted correctly. Other systems may not have the same font resources as the iSeries. You cannot print overlays or spooled files if the necessary font resources do not reside in the other system. It is your responsibility to verify that the fonts you specified reside in the system and are the same as the iSeries system. If you include page segments in overlays or spooled files, you also have to send those page segments to the target system. The support level of AFPDS structured fields depends on the system and the release of PSF*. It is your responsibility to verify that your release level of PSF supports AFPDS structured field used in its resources (overlays and page segments) and spooled files. PSF (Print Service Facility) Page Segments Fonts Note: Font substitution is supported by other systems from the following release. You can avoid this restriction by using the following releases: v PSF/MVS Version 2 Release 1 or later v PSF/VM Version 2 Release 1 or later 458 AFP Utilities for iSeries: User’s Guide
