Does anybody know where I might find the definition of the format of
a font file for the HP laserjet? I have some characters I have defined
that I need to print in a document and making a downloadable font out of
them seems like the easiest thing to do. Any pointers to HP documents,
books or source code would be perfect.
Cheers,

It is available separately, tough, and the manual for Laserjet and Laserjet+ should be used with the Laserjet II's. -- Robert -- Robert Claeson, System Administrator, PVAB, Box 4040, S-171 04 Solna, Sweden eunet: robert@pvab uucp: sun!enea!pvab!robert

I don't know if this is universal, but our Laserjet+ came with two manuals: on operators manual and a technical reference manual that describes the commands to set up downloadable fonts. My accessories list shows it for $29.00, part no. 02686-90912. HP has sales offices all over. -- Peter Fales UUCP: ...ihnp4!ihlpe!psfales work: (312) 979-7784 AT&T Information Systems, IW 1Z-243 1100 E. Warrenville Rd., IL 60566

I haven't checked to see if it differentiates between the LJ, LJ+ and the Series II. On the surface, it appears to be better written/laid out than the previous manuals.
