SUMMARY

By using Microsoft's TrueType Font Pack version 1 and Windows NT Services for Macintosh (SFM), you can print from a Macintosh computer to a non- PostScript printer attached to a Windows NT Advanced Server or Windows NT Server running SFM. This functionality is provided by the TrueImage interpreter that converts a PostScript file into a high-resolution bitmap image.

MORE INFORMATION

To support this feature, a Windows NT Advanced Server or Windows NT Server must have the Microsoft Windows version 3.1 TrueType Font Pack installed. You can order the TrueType Font Pack version 1, part number 209-650v100, from your local reseller or directly from Microsoft. In the United States, call Microsoft Consumer Sales at (800) 227-4679. If you are outside the United States, contact the Microsoft subsidiary for your area. To locate your subsidiary, see the Microsoft World Wide Offices Web site at:

If the TrueType Font Pack is not installed, printed characters may appear with strikeouts and the printout may appear with jagged printing.
