I have a requirement to produce PDFs with large print and I am having issues, need help
Posted: Wed Mar 06, 2024 8:30 pm
I currently work for a health care claims processing provider. We MAIL denial PDFs created on the Power I.
I write the programs that create denial PDFs that are mailed to members and/or providers. I create the PDFs using *AFPDS defined printer files, pass the PDF to AFPTOOL, which copies the printer file to a TIFF file, and converts the TIFF file into a PDF.
The company has received a requirement to be able to provide large print for those members who document their requirements for large print as a preference. I have tried many approaches such as changing fonts, point size, chrsiz, using CDEFNT (to point directly to 18pt size fonts), etc. But I can't get the characters to only increase to roughly a point size of 14-16 but no larger. I have checked the overrides, and they are not an issue. I posed the question on CODE400.com and the RPG400 mailing list but no one gave me a viable option. Any suggestions, links, or possible resources would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for even reading and considering my dilemma.
