Introduction
HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0
Hewlett-Packard brings you the same high quality type, that you have come to expect from HP LaserJet printers, into the Windows 3.0 environment with HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0. When you install HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0, the following will be added to your Windows 3.0 environment:
* HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 application icon
* Intellifont screen font driver -- for automatic on-the-fly screen fonts
* Eight scalable typefaces -- from the CG Times and Univers families
* HP Font Installer -- for scalable typefaces and bitmapped printer fonts
* PCL 5 Printer Driver -- for HP LaserJet III and IIID printers
* Help files -- for quick information
Screen Font Driver
HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 includes a unique screen font driver which automatically creates screen fonts, from scalable typeface files, at all point sizes supported by Windows 3.0. Intellifont® is a sophisticated font scaling technology developed by AGFA Compugraphic, the world's largest manufacturer of typesetting systems.
Intellifont technology is also built-in each HP LaserJet III and IIID printer. This means that "what you see, is what you get" when you use scalable typefaces and HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0. The screen fonts are created "on-the-fly," which means enhanced performance by eliminating the need to use valuable computer memory for traditional bitmapped screen fonts.
NOTE: The HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 screen font driver can only create scalable screen fonts for scalable typeface products. Windows 3.0 will display representative screen fonts for other kinds of fonts.
Eight Scalable Typefaces
Eight scalable typefaces from the CG Times and Univers typeface families are included with HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0. These typefaces match the resident typefaces in the HP LaserJet III and IIID printers and are the source of scalable screen fonts. CG Times (in regular, italic, bold, and bold italic) is often used for body text and Univers (in medium, italic, bold and bold italic) is often used for headlines. Optional typefaces are available from HP's MasterType Library.
HP Font Installer and Compatible Fonts
Using the HP Font Installer, you can install the following font products for use in Windows 3.0:
* Scalable typefaces
* Bitmapped printer fonts -- cartridge or disk-based (soft)
* Scalable printer fonts -- through AutoFont Support utilities
* Printer Cartridge Metric (.PCM) files
Disk-based (soft) bitmapped printer fonts must be in PCL format for HP LaserJet printers. Scalable typeface products must be in AGFA Compugraphic's FAIS format. All other font products require AutoFont Support files or .PCM files.
You can access the HP Font Installer three ways within Windows 3.0:
1. Double-click on the Intellifont icon, then click on the Fonts button.
2. From the Program Manager's Main group, double-click on Control Panel, double-click on the Printers icon, click on the Configure button, click on the Setup button, then click on the Fonts button.
3. Within most software applications, click on the File title bar, click on Printer Setup, click on the Setup button, then click on the Fonts button.
PCL 5 Printer Driver
HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 includes an upgraded PCL 5 Printer Driver. Selections in the driver window include the following items: Printer model (HP LaserJet III or IIID printer), paper source (tray), paper size, printer memory size, Page Protection status, orientation, installed font cartridges, graphics resolution, gray scale and number of copies.
The PCL 5 Printer Driver contains special code that allows Windows 3.0 software applications to access the advanced features of the HP LaserJet III and IIID printers such as: Pattern shades, multiple print directions on a single page, mirrored, shadowed and reverse (white on black) printing. Check your software application manual to see if these features are supported.
To improve graphic image printing, three new Gray Scale settings are available. Try printing your graphics with the different gray scale settings to choose the one which looks best to you.
For faster printing, the PCL 5 Printer Driver reduces the time it takes to prepare a graphic for printing to the HP LaserJet printer.
You can access the PCL 5 Printer Driver two ways within Windows 3.0:
1. From the Program Manager's Main group, double-click on Control Panel, double-click on the Printers icon, click on the Configure button, then click on the Setup button.
2. Within most software applications, click on the File title bar, click on Printer Setup, then click on the Setup button.
Help Files
Updated on-line help information is supplied for the new HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 icon, PCL 5 Printer Driver and HP Font Installer windows. Help files contain step-by-step procedures for installing accessory typeface and font products along with definition of terms. Use Help any time you need to review a procedure and remember, with Windows 3.0, you can print out a help topic any time.

8. Verify the setup selections for your printer, then click OK two times to return to the Printers window.
9. With the printer highlighted, click on the Active status button,then click OK.
10. Completely exit Windows 3.0 and return to a DOS prompt.
Instructions for Installation
These instructions, which appear on the diskette envelope, are repeated here for your convenience.
1. You must completely exit Windows 3.0 and return to a DOS prompt (not the Windows DOS icon) before installing HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0.
2. Place the HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 disk in your floppy disk drive.
3. From the DOS prompt of your floppy disk drive, type in IFWSETUP and press [Enter].
4. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen to complete installation.
As the installation program is completed, Windows 3.0 will be started. Look for the Intellifont icon in the Program Manager's Accessories group window.
The Intellifont screen font driver will be on, by default, so you can immediately see high quality CG Times and Univers screen fonts displayed in your Windows applications. If you have accessory scalable typeface products, refer to the instructions on the following pages for installation steps.
Adding Fonts
Scalable Typefaces
When accessory scalable typeface products are installed, HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 will automatically create matching screen fonts on-the-fly as needed. For both cartridge-based and disk-based scalable typeface products, follow these steps:
1. Double-click on the Intellifont icon.
2. Click on the Fonts button.
3. Click on the Add Fonts... button.
4. Locate a scalable typeface diskette and insert it into your source floppy disk drive (the A: drive is the default), then click on OK.
The HP Font Installer will read the diskette and display a list of typefaces from your source drive. If the scalable typefaces are already installed on your hard disk, indicate the appropriate drive and directory.
5. Highlight the typeface(s) you want to install.
6. Click on the Add... button.
7. Identify a symbol set and click on OK.
The default is the WN: Windows symbol set, however, if you have a cartridge-based product, we recommend that you select Cartridge - Screen fonts only. (See Page 13 for more information about symbol sets.) If you want to select an application symbol set (such as math or dingbats), refer to your printer user's manual or the manuals that came with your accessory type products to see charts showing the exact characters in each symbol set.
8. Indicate the destination drive and directory where you want to place your screen fonts and, if needed, printer fonts. Click on OK.
If you select Cartridge - Screen fonts only, you will not have to indicate a printer font directory. The default screen font directory is C:\TD\TYPE and the default printer font directory is C:\PCLFONTS. Once installed, the scalable typeface(s) will appear on the left side of the screen under the heading "PCL/HP LaserJet on [port]." Scalable printer fonts can be recognized by the absence of a point size designation and a two-character symbol set code (such as WN). Screen fonts can be recognized by a small dot ( · ) prior to the typeface name.
9. Repeat this process for each of the scalable typeface diskettes you received.
10. Return to your original window.
NOTE: Before you can select cartridge typefaces or fonts in your Windows applications, you must select the cartridge name in the printer Setup window. From the Program Manager's Main window, double-click on Control Panel, double-click on the Printers icon, click on Configure button, then click on the Setup button. Highlight your cartridge from the list. Click on OK. Return to your original window.
Type Director User Hints
Scalable Typefaces
Scalable typefaces installed through Type Director are compatible with HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0. When you run the setup program for HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0, you are asked to identify a scalable typeface directory. You should identify the same directory as used by Type Director (the default typeface directory for both programs is C:\TD\TYPE).
Screen Fonts
If you correctly identify this directory, the scalable typefaces you installed in Type Director will automatically be available for use in HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0. The screen font driver uses scalable typefaces files to create scalable screen fonts. Printer fonts are handled differently.
Printer Fonts
If you used Type Director to create scalable printer fonts and if you used Type Director to install the fonts into Windows 3.0, skip to the next section entitled "Bitmapped Screen Fonts."
If you used Type Director to create scalable printer fonts for programs other than Windows 3.0 you will need to update Windows through the HP Font Installer by following these steps:
1. Double-click on the Intellifont icon.
2. Click on the Fonts button.
3. Click on the Add Fonts... button.
4. Type in the drive and directory of your Type Director scalable typeface directory (for example, C:\TD\TYPE), then click on OK.
5. Highlight the typeface(s) you want to install.
6. Click on the Add... button.
7. Identify a symbol set and click on OK.
If you have previously used Type Director to create scalable printer fonts, and you do not want duplicate fonts, type in the symbol set of your original scalable printer font. Use Type Director's List/Delete Fonts menu to determine this information. If you do not use the same symbol set, a new scalable printer font will be made.
8. Indicate the destination drive and directory where you want to place your screen fonts and, if needed, printer fonts. Click on OK.
In order to avoid duplicate font files, the screen font directory should match your scalable typeface directory (for example, C:\TD\TYPE). The printer font directory should be the same as the one used in Type Directory (for example, C:\TD\FONTS).
9. Return to your original window.
Deleting Bitmapped Screen Fonts
HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 replaces the need for individual bitmapped screen fonts in Windows 3.0. If you created screen fonts through Type Director, you can delete them and save both disk space and computer memory.
Use the Type Director's List/Delete Fonts menu to delete screen fonts. Screen fonts are clearly identified in Type Director under the heading "Device." You cannot use the HP Font Installer to delete bitmapped screen fonts.
NOTE: It is important that you use Type Director when deleting bitmapped screen fonts because the program has the ability to automatically update a special Windows 3.0 control file (WIN.INI).
Disk-based Bitmapped Fonts (Soft Fonts)
The HP Font Installer is capable of reading and installing any disk-based bitmapped printer fonts that are in Hewlett-Packard's PCL format for HP LaserJet printers.
NOTE: The HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 screen font driver can only create scalable screen fonts for scalable typeface products. Windows 3.0 will display representative screen fonts for other kinds of fonts.
1. Double-click on the Intellifont icon.
2. Click on the Fonts button.
3. Click on the Add fonts... button.
4. Indicate the drive and directory of your bitmapped printer fonts.
5. Highlight the font(s) you want to install.
6. Click on the Add... button.
7. Indicate the destination drive and directory where you want to place your bitmapped printer fonts and, if needed, printer fonts. Click on OK.
Several files are updated to tell Windows 3.0 the location of the font(s) and provide support information. Because of this, if the fonts are already in a directory on your hard disk drive, you can identify the same directory as the destination drive. This way, the HP Font Installer will not make a duplicate copy of the font. Otherwise, use the default printer font directory C:\PCLFONTS.
Once installed, the bitmapped printer fonts will appear on the left side of the screen under the heading "PCL/HP LaserJet on [port]" Bitmapped printer fonts can be recognized by a unique point size designation.
8. Return to your original window.
Editing Font Names and Attributes
If you would like to change the name of a font, you can use the HP Font Installer's edit feature. Highlight an installed font (listed under the heading PCL/HP LaserJet on [port]) and press the Edit button. Make your changes and press OK. More information about the edit functions can be found in the on-line Help screens.
Cartridge-based Bitmapped Fonts
Support is already included for many of Hewlett-Packard's newer bitmapped font cartridge products with the PCL 5 Printer Driver. You will not need to use the HP Font Installer if your cartridge is listed.
However, you will need to select your cartridge in the printer Setup window. From the Program Manager's Main window, double-click on Control Panel, double-click on the Printers icon, click on Configure, click on Setup. Highlight the name of your font cartridge and press OK. Return to your original window.
Unlisted Cartridges
If you have a font cartridge that is unlisted, you must install AutoFont Support files (.TFM) or a Printer Cartridge Metric (.PCM) file which supports the fonts through the HP Font Installer. If you do not have AutoFont Support diskettes for HP font products, you can order them. In the USA and Canada, call Hewlett-Packard at 303-353-7650 (Monday through Friday 7 a.m to 6 p.m. MST). For all other countries, contact your authorized HP dealer. If you purchased a font cartridge from a company other than HP, call that company to see if a Windows 3.0 .PCM file or AutoFont Support file is available.
AutoFont Support and .PCM Instructions
1. If you have an AutoFont Support utility, follow that program's directions to install the AutoFont Support files.
2. From within Windows 3.0, double click on the Intellifont icon and click on the Fonts button.
3. Click on the Add fonts... button.
4. Indicate the drive and directory where AutoFont Support files or .PCM files are stored (for example, C:\AUTOFONT) and click on OK.
5. Highlight the name of the cartridge you want to install.
6. Click on the Add button.
7. Indicate the destination drive for your support files (the default is C:\PCLFONTS).
Once installed, the cartridge name will appear under the heading "PCL/HP LaserJet on [port]."
8. Return to the original window.
NOTE: Before you can select cartridge fonts in your Windows applications, you must select the cartridge name in the printer Setup window. From the Program Manager's Main window, double-click on Control Panel, double-click on the Printers icon, click on Configure button, then click on the Setup button. Highlight your cartridge from the list. Click on OK. Return to your original window.
Symbol Sets
Symbol Sets, also known as "character sets," are unique groupings of characters or
symbols within a font. The Windows Symbol Set (WN) is the default symbol set used for Windows fonts.
To see exactly which characters are in a symbol set, refer to your printer user's manual or the manuals that came with your accessory font or typeface product.
Accessing Special Characters
Use the charts in the manuals to locate the symbol set and characters you need for your work. Some characters are called "extended" because they are not typically found on common computer keyboards. To print characters outside the range of your computer keyboard:
1. Locate the character code number of the symbol you want using the symbol set
charts found in your HP LaserJet printer manual or font accessory manual.
2. Press and hold down the [Alt] key.
3. Type in a zero (0), then the character code number using your
computer's numeric keypad.
NOTE: Windows 3.0 requires you to type in leading zeros for a total of four digits.
4. Release the [Alt] key.
For example, the register mark ®, in the Windows Symbol Set is character number 174, and should be keyed in with your numeric keypad as [Alt] 0174.
Multi-language characters ( È ä Ç ñ ß ) and special symbols ( ® £ © ½ ¥ ) are accessed this way.
Downloading Fonts
The process of transferring disk-based (soft) fonts from your computer to your printer is called downloading.
Soft fonts are designated temporary status by default. This means the fonts will be
automatically downloaded by Windows 3.0 each time you print a job. Generally you should not have to change this status. The benefit of temporary fonts is that you will not have to remember which fonts have been downloaded to the printer.
If you consistently use the same group of fonts, you can designate the fonts as permanent. Permanent fonts are stored in your HP LaserJet printer's memory until it is powered off. The benefit of using permanent fonts is that you won't have to wait to download fonts before printing jobs throughout the day.
NOTE: If you are sharing a printer and designate fonts as permanent, make sure that others using the printer are aware of which fonts are downloaded.
To install fonts as permanent you can use the HP Font Installer window.
1. Double click on the Intellifont icon.
2. Click on the Fonts button.
3. Highlight a disk-based (soft) font from the list.
4. Click on the Permanent "radio button" to highlight and activate it.
An asterisk ( * ) will appear next to the font name, designating it as a permanent font.
5. When you exit the HP Font Installer, follow the messages that appear in a dialog box to select download now or download at startup.
If you select download at startup, each time you re-boot or power-on your computer, the fonts will be downloaded. Make sure that your printer is powered on and is on-line before re-booting your computer. The HP Font Installer will add a batch file (.BAT) to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. A DOS prompt appears asking you to confirm whether you want to download the fonts. If you answer yes, the fonts will be downloaded and a sample will be printed. Remember, it will take additional time to download the fonts.
The number of fonts you can download at one time is dependent upon the font file size and the amount of memory you have in your HP LaserJet printer.
You can also use the HP Font Installer to change the download status of a font by using the Edit button or by highlighting the font and clicking on permanent or temporary.

Atech Software's Publishers PowerPak
HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 and Publishers PowerPak cannot be used at the same time. If you want to turn Publishers PowerPak off, change the printer driver back to the HP LaserJet III printer through the Program Manger's Control Panel and Printer icon.
Bitstream FaceLift
HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 and FaceLift can operate concurrently. However, problems may occur when FaceLift is installed after HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0 is installed. If this is the case, re-install HP Intellifont-for-Windows 3.0.
Bitstream FontWare
There are various modules of FontWare that create standard bitmapped printer fonts or scalable fonts for HP LaserJet printers. If you use standard bitmapped printer fonts, follow the instructions on Page 11. If you have FontWare's module for HP LaserJet III printers, you can create scalable fonts and AutoFont Support files. When you install FontWare's scalable fonts into Windows 3.0, use the HP Font Installer and indicate the AutoFont Support directory as the source drive and directory.
Computer Software Corp.'s Arts & Letters
The HP LaserJet printer must be selected in each Arts & Letters job. Open the Attributes window, select Type, click on the check box for HP LaserJet printer. Then select fonts.
Micrografx Designer
Because of the way Designer lists fonts, style names must be identified for some typefaces, such as scripts. If the correct typeface is listed, but does not appear on your screen, check the typeface style selection. For example, if you have the accessory script typeface Brush, follow these steps.
1. Click on Text from the Designer title bar.
2. Highlight the typeface name (Brush) to select.
3. Under the Style heading, click on Change style.
4. Click on bold and italic.
Microsoft Word for Windows
Current versions of Word for Windows do not automatically recognize newly installed fonts. Anytime you install new fonts, you must go into Word for Windows and open the printer Setup window to update Word's available fonts list.
1. From within a Word document, click on File.
2. Click on Printer Setup.
3. Click on the Setup button.
4. Click on OK two times to return to your document.
Microsoft PowerPoint
Create shades, boxes and other images prior to positioning text. Depending upon the way text is laid over objects, the image you see on the screen may not match what is printed. If this occurs, try bringing your text to the front (on top) of objects.
Changes made to the printer Setup window within PowerPoint are temporary. If you want to make permanent changes to the PCL 5 Printer Driver, access the Setup window through the Program Manager's Control Panel (see steps on Page 5).
Samna Ami Professional
Versions prior to 1.2 are not supported.
Ventura Publisher
Ventura Publisher for Windows, Version 1.0, is limited to less than 150 fonts. Kerning pairs are not supported by the HP Font Installer.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
