Problem

Symptoms: Bolded Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, and/or Russian text printed to an Epson LQ printer with the language module soft fonts prints lighter and is harder to read than normal text. Solutions: The Epson LQ printers are not able to print the soft fonts in bold. The printer drivers that ship with the Arabic and Hebrew Language Modules have the following line in the Printer Helps and Hints screen: "When using soft fonts on this printer, bold text may appear lighter or broken." To give text a bolded appearance, Epson LQ printers spread out the text. This process of spreading out the text can sometimes make the text appear lighter or broken.
