BUG: Missing 16-bit PFM Fonts in the Epson9 Minidriver Sample

 Last reviewed: January 11, 1997

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Win32 Device Driver Kit (DDK) for Windows NT, version 4.0

The following 16-bit fonts are missing from the Epson9 printer minidriver sample in the Windows NT 4.0 DDK: 

   ROMN15.PFM
   SANS15.PFM
   DRAFT10.PFM
   DRAFT12.PFM
   DRAFT15.PFM
   DRAFT17.PFM
   DRAFT20.PFM
   DRAFT05.PFM
   DRAFT06.PFM
   DRAFT17L.PFM
The sample's EPSON9.W31 file references these 16-bit PFM fonts that are not included in the DDK. When you try to open these PFM fonts in Unitool, you will get an error because they are missing. BUILD uses the EPSON9.RC file that references the 32-bit IFI fonts. The IFI fonts are included in the DDK, which is why it builds correctly straight from the box.

If you try to modify the sample and try to rebuild the driver without first obtaining these fonts, you could get build errors similar to the following: 

   EPSON9.RC (19): error RC2135 : file not found: ROMN15
The fix is to either obtain the mentioned PFM fonts or remove these references from the EPSON9.W31 file.
