Remarks
DosPFSActivate is intended for use only by applications that replace the
spooler as a print monitor and that do code page switching. Other
applications should use printer IOCTLs to manipulate printer code page
switching.
DosPFSActivate is located in SPOOLCP.DLL (not in DOSCALLS.LIB) and
requires an import statement in the module definition file. See the IBM
Operating System/2 Version 1.2 Building Programs, Module Definition File
Statements section for information regarding the import statement.
Return values are:
2 Code page not available.
4 Font ID not available.
9 Code page switcher internal error.
10 Invalid printer name as input.
13 Received code page request when code page switcher not
initialized.
15 System file number table full. Cannot activate another entry.
19 I/O error reading font file control sequence section.
21 I/O error reading font file font definition block.
