cascading font - Details

  Key Concepts: 
  Cascading font is a feature of SAP's Print and Output Management component that allows users to define a hierarchy of fonts for their documents. This means that if a certain font is not available on the user's system, the next font in the hierarchy will be used instead. This ensures that documents are always printed with the desired font, regardless of the user's system.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use cascading font, users must first define a hierarchy of fonts in their SAP system. This can be done by going to the Print and Output Management component and selecting the “Fonts” tab. From there, users can select which fonts they want to use and in what order they should be used. Once this is done, documents will automatically be printed with the desired font, even if it is not available on the user's system.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When defining a cascading font hierarchy, it is important to make sure that all of the fonts are compatible with the user's system. If a font is not compatible, it will not be used and documents may not print correctly. Additionally, it is important to make sure that all of the fonts are available on all of the user's systems, as this will ensure that documents are always printed with the desired font.
