Add/Modify Custom Font Settings (Server) Dialog Box
Use this dialog box to customize the font database in the Exceed Xconfig utility. When executing custom installations for Hummingbird Exceed, Sconfig lets you control the servers added to the font database file in Xconfig. The end result of the customization is that users can see a new customized font server in their font database file in Xconfig.
Font Type—Specifies font type that can be added to the font database in Xconfig. Depending upon the type of protocol your server is running, select the appropriate server from the drop-down list to display server settings.
Host Name—Specifies a host name or an IP address for the server to which you want to connect. Type an IP address or host name into the box to connect to the font server.
Port—Lists the transport protocol and the server port number. Select the server port or transport protocol from the drop-down list to connect to the font server.
Catalogue—Specifies a catalogue for the server to which you want to connect. Type values for the catalogue into the box.
Status Area
Load—Select this option button when the Exceed X server starts or restarts, the font directory is automatically loaded (or when the default font path is manually reloaded or requested by a client) or a connection is automatically made to the font server.
Keep—Select this option button to keep the font directory or font server connection resident at all times. It remains resident even if a client forces a new path that does not include the Keep directory or server.
Inactive—Select this option button when the font directory is not automatically loaded or a connection with the font server is not re-established when the Exceed X server starts. However, a client such as Xset may manually load an inactive font directory.
Physical Font Name Match Allowed—Select this option button when the font directory is not automatically loaded or a connection with the font server is not re-established when the Exceed X server starts. However, a client such as Xset may manually load an inactive font directory.
