Using HP FontSmart
HP FontSmart is a font management utility (for Windows only), that is
included with the printing software that came with your printer. When
you install the printing software, you can install HP FontSmart through
the Custom installation option.
Fonts must first be installed in your computer’s operating system
before you can use them in an application. The HP FontSmart utility
manages fonts and makes them available to Windows applications.
Using HP FontSmart can improve Windows performance by allowing
you to install and make available only the fonts you need.
HP FontSmart searches your disk(s) for all fonts, allowing you to view
font samples and to remove any duplicate or unneeded fonts.
When you run HP FontSmart, two lists are displayed. The list on the
left displays fonts available to install, and the list on the right displays
the fonts that are currently installed in Windows. You can install,
uninstall, or delete any font that appears on the lists.
For more information, see the online Help for HP FontSmart.
Note To save disk space and system resources, install only those fonts that
you plan to use.
