You then do the same for the italics and boldface files, for example typing

3.4.7 Downloading a font: example two
Example two is for a computer running Aldus Corporation’s PageMaker
desktop publishing program with Microsoft Windn-t’s.
PageMaker provides a print driver called HPPCL.DRV, and a program
called PCLPFM.EXE which creates the data itneeds to printa given font. To
create font data for your Century Schoolbook fonts, at the A> prompt you
type:
PCLPFM CNIOO*.R8P
The asterisk, a “wildcard character”, indicates that PCLPFM is to create a
data file for all three fonts — regular, italics and bold. The program asks if
you want to create afilecalled APPNDWIN.INI to append intothe Wiruhws
font menu file: type Y for yes.
After PCLPFM has made the font data file, with your word processor open
the Window’sfile called WIN.INI and key in the font defaults you want to
apply. At the section referring to the HPPCL printer driver, insert the
APPNDWIN.INI file you created earlier.
That’s it! From now on your Century Schoolbook fonts will appear on the
print menus of all your Wimkwt’sapplications.
With both examples, how you use the fonts depends on your applications
software. As you know, sending commands to change fonts will probably
require some experimenting: be patient. These commands are described in
the following chapter.
