Problem

Symptoms: On the HP LaserJet IID (Additional) driver, the Pacific Data Products 25 in One! (172) cartridge lists three landscape fonts: Times Roman 10pt regular, bold, and italic. This does not appear to cause any problem, but the customer is curious as to why they are even listed, since the printer rotates all fonts. Solutions: The fonts were added because of the way the HP works and the way the PDP cartridge was designed. If the HP IID or IIP is asked to print in landscape, it first checks to see if a landscape font exists that matches the select string. If it does it will print in that font. If it doesn't it will rotate the portrait font. The PDP cartridge Times Roman 10pt reg/italic/bold fonts in landscape have a different PS width than the ones in portrait. This is why we had to define both portrait and landscape fonts.
