I had always thought that soft fonts were 'downloaded' into the printers memory, then were available during the life of that 'power-up' cycle. But with windows (and my HP Seriex II driver) the Symbol fonts exist in the directory 'pdl-fonts', and it appears that Windows just uses these fonts when formatting the given page, then shoots a bit map to the printer (skipping the downloading part all together). I need to get the following fonts: Helvetica 8,10,12,14 Courier 9 TmsRoman 8,10,12,14 I appreciate any help in finding them.
