Problem

Symptoms: Is it possible to change the space character from a proportionally spaced (PS) font to a fixed pitch (fixed width) font for the HP LaserJet IIID printer so that it will line up with proportionally spaced numbers within that font? Solutions: Yes. The following steps list how to accomplish this: 1. Retrieve the .ALL file into the PTR Program 2. Highlight the HP LaserJet IIID printer and press Enter 3. Select Miscellaneous Questions and mark Use Space Width from PS Table with an asterisk 4. Find the width that is assigned to the numbers in the Proportional Spacing Table for the font 5. Enter this width for the space character within the same PS Table 6. Refer to the Proportional Spacing Tables (Editing a PS Table) section in the PTR Program manual for exact steps on how to change the width within a PS Table How/Why: Numbers for PS fonts each use the same width. If the space character is set to "Use Space Width from PS Table" and is then given the same width that the numbers are using, the space character will align correctly with the numbers.
