manufacturers to produce PostScript CJKV printers by licensing the necessary system les
from Adobe Systems. It also makes it possible for users to CJKV-enable such PostScript
devices by downloading a contemporary CJKV font using Adobe Systems’ installer.

Versions of PostScript prior to PostScript Level 2, now called PostScript Level 1, did not
have composite font support, exceptions being PostScript Japanese Level 1 printers, such
as Apple’s LaserWriter II NTX-J just mentioned.
No matter which version of PostScript you have in your printer, if the font with which you
are attempting to print is resident on the printer (“resident” here refers to being baked
into ROM or on the printer’s hard disk, whether internal or external), the font is rendered
on the printer. To give you an example of the size of a PostScript le compared to sending
bitmapped data to the printer from the computer, see the following code, which repre-
sents a complete PostScript le for printing my Japanese penname () set vertically
