Adding a Custom Font Server

Adding a font server to the installation database connects users to a customized font database in Xconfig. You need to know the network node specification of the host where the font server is located and the port or object name (DECnet transports). You can also specify additional font catalogues.

Note: 
  This functionality is not available in TSE mode.

To add a custom font server:

  1. In the Custom Fonts pane, click Add. The Add/Modify Custom Fonts Settings dialog box opens.
  2. From the Font Type drop-down list, select a server.
  3. In the Host Name box, type the server name.
  4. In the Port box, type or select the port number.
  5. If you want to specify a catalogue, type the catalogue name in the Catalogue box.
  6. Select the status of the server directory. You can select Load, Keep, or Inactive.
  7. To make matches to this directory using its physical font name as well as its logical font name, select the Match Physical Font Name box and click OK. The Custom Fonts pane appears listing the new font server added to the installation database.
  8. If you want to add another font server, repeat steps 1-7.
