printing with custom legacy font (.) A3L)

Hello world

I stumbled upon an old DOS application, EMS, used for the old PLC program logic. Logic is a function block so there are lines and boxes.

The application comes with a police A3L custom suffix. There is also autodl.exe to load fonts in the printer. I'm running it in virtual environment of Windows 98. I don't have any 'real' LPT or HP Laserjet series 2, so the autodl.exe gives an error. When I try to print with a standard font with a virtual PDF printer, all I get is a page with several strings (e.g. * c7a143b0P) placed one above the other, sometimes of 20 of them in a pile.

Is there no workaround solution that would allow me to print something through the use of police made custom?

When I open the file of police with Notepad, I see it's a file copyrighted by HP since 1986. Yes, 1986! Some real old school.

Thanks for any help.

I have no idea of the answer, just a few comments:

  • The * c7a143b0P sequence (which will be almost certainly preceded by a (non-graphical) control code character resembles a PCL escape sequence , whose meaning is:)

    Offset         Type                   Sequence          Description

    00000000       PCL Parameterised      *c7a         Rectangle Size Horizontal (7 PCL units)
    00000005                                     143b       Rectangle Size Vertical   (143 PCL units)

  • This is part of your comment about «I have not...» Printer HP Laserjet series 2", which is a printer PCL 4 .
  • Then you will not be able to "print" to a PDF printer, PDF being nothing like PCL.

  • File to change PDF to print with a larger font

    I understand that with Adobe Acrobat 9 or X, we could be able to print a PDF with a larger font.  Is the only way because I don't have any other software - only the free player.  To retirement and visually impaired, I really want to pay the full purchase price.  I got the 4K eye surgeon...

    You talk about a type change function that is not part of Acrobat. Sorry, but extend the font size which would require also a reflow of the document is not appropriate in Acrobat action. If you can convert the PDF to WORD or Open OFFICE (may be able to open a PDF file in one of them - maybe but doubt actually), you could do the expansion in WORD or Open OFFICE (or free AGENCY). Another option could be to try to copy and paste from the PDF file to a word processor. Unfortunately, you often end up with a large number of symbols of paragraph at the end of each line and may have to do a reformat. Good luck.

  • Printing with custom built-in fonts

    I have a few questions about printing using specific fonts. While I found no documentation specifically dealing with this area, if there are documents dealing with this subject directly, please point me to it.

    My application allows printing the current view and I would use a certain font that is not available to the system level on the computer that runs the application. If I embed a font, that font is only usable on the controls in the view, or can I create a print job and use the fonts to the printer? Or the printer has to "know" the police as well?

    Where should I integrate my policy? In the ActionScript file that loads the printed form or on paper form?

    A printed page is just a Flash display list tree.  Vector or a bitmap

    vectors of the embedded police are sent to the printer.  The printer

    don't know anything about the police.

    I would like to incorporate the police in the printed form.

  • Some PDFS are print with empty boxes, replacing the text

    I have some of my electricity and gas supplier invoices and invoices are printed with squares displayed instead of text. I have already restored the book of fonts for the default fonts. I have no problem with the display of these bills on my computer. I have another PDF files and they all are printed correctly. If I open the PDF file that is badly printed and export it to PDF in PREVIEW app, the output is the same as on my printer. I tried to restore all the fonts by default those and I tried to reinstall OSX update with update combo, always the same.

    What else can I do to restore the normal print mode?

  • SAP check printing with OCRA Questions

    We are researching the possibility to print cheques from SAP ERP (ECC 6.0) which have a requirement of the Bank for the use of fonts OCRA for analysis.   Everything I found, it does not appear that all HP laserjet printers have the integrated police.   Is this correct?   We have a range of HP printers that would probably be used (Laserjet 2420, P3005, P3015, etc..)

    Old posts, I see that there could be 3 options to print fonts OCRA, but the only documentation we saw which refers to setting sapscript seems look option (a) below.

    "Assuming that the printer has NOT OCRA as an integrated policy, you must do one of the following values:

    b get a font cartridge or DIMM (assuming that the printer supports this). you would then have to say your print/request driver (somehow) that the police was available.

    b get a soft-font loaded on a hard drive in the printer (but I do not think that LJ4000tn will have a hard drive?) and similarly arrange for your print/apply driver to use it.

    (c) to obtain a downloadable app-police (encapsulated PCL format) that you download to the printer when required; again, you will need to organize (somehow) to your print/apply driver to use. »

    I guess my main questions are: HP makes all the necessary documentation for impression ocra in conjunction with SAP?   Font cartridges the best option and is there documentation to use?

    Thank you for your time,

    Shawn.

    Shawn

    Glad to be of assistance.

    Note that you may need several different Cartridge/SIMM/DIMM hardware Add-ons to support different target device models (and some are not supported at all?).

    The 'downloadable soft police' option should work with most modern LaserJet printers (i.e. those that support PCL5) except for the cheaper "host-based" ones.

    But I have no idea (if possible) how you would say SAP to use such a font.

  • How can I get my hp officejet pro 8600 to print a custom size

    Hi, I just upgraded from the officejet pro 8500 to the officejet pro 8600, I try to print a piece of the custom paper size.  The size is 26.9 mm x 13.4 mm, I am on windows 7.

    The error is:-paper detected does not match format of paper or type selected.

    I had 4 printers officejet different over the years and never not been able to print a custom size, can someone please help with this one.

    Some printers are able to print custom formats real, but most made currently are not. It is because the printer must be able to recognize and 'confidence' settings which are entered. If a number was entered incorrectly, the printer can damage its internal components.

    This is especially true in this case, because the above dimensions are considerably smaller than anything that can be printed.

    My recommendation is to use a paper size appropriate to print materials and cut the large piece to the correct size.

    Let me know if it helps!

  • You can print with a 6s iPhone using a printer no Wifi

    How do you print with a 6s iPhone using the printer no WiFi?

    Hey,.

    I always got WiFi printers in my house and never had to deal with this problem personally, but the following CNET article seems to answer this question:

    http://www.CNET.com/how-to/how-to-print-wirelessly-from-your-iPhone-iPad-or-iPod - touch.

    My printer is a HP OfficeJet 7500 E910, which allows me to print from any wireless device and my printer is plugged only the power source.

    Also, I did not read the entire article carefully, but I would venture to say that if you have a cable to connect your printer to your wireless router, it should appear as a network printer. If your iPhone is connected to the same wireless network as the router is mounted, you should have this success. It would still be printing wireless from your iPhone, but just a different configuration.

    Hope this helps, and feel free to respond with thoughts or questions!

    Thank you

  • Printing with ps cc (2015.5) problem

    I had been printing since I bought this Epson 3880 Stylus Pro, at least once every 2 weeks to more than a year without any problems. I print directly from photoshop, last week I printed 2 images, isn't a problem. Until today, prints comes very evil. In 2 different images green appears in the shadows and like don't muddy not sharp or details. Very hard to explain, but you can see the result of printing with an attachment. Impressions are UNEXCEPTABLE.

    So I try to print from LR with a different image that I never print from LR before. And the result came out the same. Green and muddy in the shadow or the dark area... very sad... do not know what the problem is and really have no idea how to solve this problem.

    Can you please help?

    Have you tried taking this image and printing of another

    no Adobe app such as preview?  Are the results the same?

    Have you tried this printer with another computer/device?

    The last of them is important to determine if you actually have a printer

    hardware failure or if there is a corruption of software/driver on the iMac.

    The first step is to determine whether or not it is a problem for Adobe.

  • Printing with Safari and Firefox

    Lately, some sites say that they do not support older SAFARI browsers. When I print something, print is extremely low, even with a new print cartridge.

    When I print with FIREFOX, printing is crisp but the print menu displays the pages. Therefore, I'm not able to select the pages I want to print. Is there a solution?

    Firefox uses its own printing Panel and has a button down, which will display the details display or hide details (abbreviated Panel). The ability to print _ to _ is available on the largest panel display details.
