Font Mapping (5250 Printer Sessions)
You can map local printer fonts to typestyle IDs used in AS/400 documents. You can then insert these typestyle IDs into source documents on the AS/400, and assign various font, style, and size configurations to these typestyle IDs.
If you don't map typestyle IDs to fonts, InfoConnect attempts to match the font. However, the output may only approximate what is specified in the documents.

Open a 5250 printer session.
