APPLICATION NOTE #183
 PACIFIC DATA PRODUCTS 25-IN-ONE (172-CARTRIDGE)
 Rev. 01




 XYQUEST has developed printer files for Pacific Data Products' 
25-In-One (172-Font), Model #CF120 cartridge, which is designed to be 
used with the the HP LaserJet Series II, Series IID, and Series IIP. 
This application note lists the printer files, and also describes the 
substitution table incorporated into them.


 PRINTER FILES
 In order to take advantage of Pacific Data Products' 25-In-One 
(172-Font) cartridge, you must have XyWrite III Plus and the correct 
printer files. The printer files are:

    3PACF172.PRN For the LaserJet Series II
    3IID-172.PRN For the LaserJet Series IID or IIP

 If you need one of these files, please call Technical Services for 
information on how to order it.


 SUBSTITUTION TABLE
 Each printer file contains the same substitution table, called 
8U-SUB. (A printed copy of this table is available on request.) The 
substitution table associates an ASCII character with a character in 
the Roman-8 (8U) character set. The ASCII character is what you see 
on the screen, and the Roman-8 character is what actually prints out. 
Whenever possible, the ASCII characters and Roman-8 characters match; 
however, the Roman-8 character set includes characters that are not 
part of the ASCII set.

 For example, the Roman-8 character set includes many foreign language 
characters that are not part of the ASCII set. The substitution table 
assigns an available ASCII character (one that you do not want to 
print) to each of these foreign language characters. Let's take a 
look at a specific case. The Roman-8 character set includes an 
uppercase U with a grave accent. This character is not an ASCII 
character (and therefore cannot be displayed on the screen), so we 
assigned ASCII character 190 to it.

 When you want to print the accented U, enter the ASCII representation 
of it.

    Type: Alt-Shift-190

 Result: ASCII character 190 appears on the screen, but when you print 
your document, XyWrite substitutes the accented U character.

 Note #1 Non-Printing Characters. The substitution table does not 
associate a printable character with some ASCII values. Do not use 
the unassigned ASCII values in your documents; if you do, you will 
get unpredictable results.
