Re: Printing of paychecks, SPF files (PeopleSoft

[Michael Lee <MLee@AGCONSULT.COM>]

Albert,
We just added a logo to the paycheck.  Basically, we scanned in the image
into a SIMM card and are calling the image to print when needed.

Once scanned into the SIMM card, we use the SQR command "encode" to bring
the check signature font into a string variable.  Then, we print the
variable.

That's it!  We are printing this to an IBM Infoprint 20 (mainframe/PCL
printer).

So, it's not necessary to have the output file be a .SPF format.  .LIS will
do.

This refers to PeopleSoft Payroll, version 7, paycheck printing..

Why would print fonts be different when printing through an SPF file rather
than a .LIS file? We would like to add a logo to the paychecks.  This
requires sending the printout to a .SPF file and printing from that.
However, in the delivered PAY003 program, when doing this, the font style
and size changes and the print no longer fits within the borders on the
paycheck form.  How can this be fixed?

Oddly enough, the SPF format prints in a fixed font, while the .LIS file
generates a proportional one.  This seems backward to me.  Any clues?
