TrueType Problems with PS388 PostScript Board (87314)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 3.1
- Microsoft Windows 3.11
This article was previously published under Q87314 SYMPTOMS
When you use Princeton Publishing Labs' PostScript controller board model
PS388 manufactured by Raster Image Processing Systems (RIPS Inc.), TrueType
characters are clipped when printed.
The characters are most often clipped at point sizes greater than 12
points; however, this may happen at any point size.
CAUSE
This is a problem with the early production RIPS boards.
To identify an earlier board not compatible with TrueType, look at the
file date of the file that is downloaded to the PostScript board when
the system is started. If the file date is 1991 or later, the board
should not have problems with TrueType.
RESOLUTION
For assistance with this problem, call Raster Image Processing Systems
(RIPS, Inc.).
MORE INFORMATION

Weitek processors. The newer boards based on Intel processors work
