Re: Printing larger fonts

[Bryan Dietz <BDietz@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually if you are on V5R2 or above, to get the best fit to the page
simpley remove the CPICOR stanza's

New Method -- Removing the CPICOR Tags

Once you are editing the WSCST source code using either PDM or SEU, find
the CPICOR entry in the table by typing "CPICOR" (without the quotes) on
the SEU command line, and press the F16 (Repeat find) key. The CPI in COR
Mode (CPICOR) tag tells Host Print Transform (HPT) which font to use for
each character per Inch (CPI) value when performing the Computer Output
Reduction (COR) function. The COR function is used to rotate and shrink
output in cases where the pages in the spooled file are too large to fit on
the page. For example, if you have a report that prints on US Fan-Fold
(13.2 by 11.0-inch) paper on your system printers, it is too large to print
on Letter (8.5 by 11.0-inch) without rotating the output and using a
smaller font.
