Product Overview

3 pitch fonts designed for IBM 3800 printers on z/OS. These fonts are now a base element of z/OS. The architecture comprised several key components.

The JES (Job Entry Subsystem) managed the print jobs. Printer drivers translated the print data into a format the printer could understand. Font libraries stored the font data.

The communication between these components was managed by the z/OS operating system. The fonts were stored within system libraries. The printing process utilized the system's resources.

The primary method of interacting with Data1 Fonts involved specifying font characteristics within JCL. This included font selection, size, and other attributes. Security was managed at the z/OS system level.

Data1 Fonts are no longer supported by IBM. Users should utilize the fonts available within the current z/OS environment for their printing needs. Migration involves updating JCL and print job configurations to use the available fonts.

The z/OS system provides a range of fonts that can be used for printing.
