Documentation
Definition
Identification of a printer font in landscape mode. This field is used to control the printer font selection when a document created with SAPscript is output to a printer.
Every printer used in the R/3 System is assigned a specific printer type. The fonts available for word processing are maintained separately for each printer type.
The value which is entered here is generally a five-character character combination which refers to table T022D. The print controls or control sequences for printers are managed in table T022D. The printer type and five-character combination form the argument in this table.
Example: The control sequence for the printer type HPLJIIID for activating the printer font "COURIER 12 Points" in landscape mode is stored in T022D under the key "HPLJIIID SF001". "SF001" must therefore be entered as the character combination here.
The control sequences to be entered in T022D depend on the type of printer and the driver program used. Every printer type is assigned an OTF printer driver in table T022A.
The following OTF drivers currently exist:
- STND: A driver for simple line printers. Every printer can be controlled via this driver.
- PRES: A driver for printers which are controlled with the control language PRESCRIBE used by the company Kyocera. Example: Kyocera F-series, F-1000, F-1200, F-2200, F-3000, F-3010.
- POST: A driver for printers which are controlled via the page description language PostScript from the company ADOBE.
- HPL2: A driver for printers which are controlled via HP LaserJet II control sequences, or have a corresponding emulation.
For the sake of clarity, the entries used by SAPscript in table T022D for print control should always begin with the letter "S" as this table is a general control table of the R/3 spool system and contains other control sequences. The font identification which is entered here should be called "SFxxx", where "xxx" is a three-digit number.
Note:
- If a certain printer type does not differentiate between portrait and landscape mode in the font control command, the same control sequence should be used from T022D for both portrait and landscape mode.
- If a printer font is not available in landscape mode, this field should remain empty.
- An entry in this field is ignored for screen fonts.
