IBM

As part of the AFP architecture, IBM provides several products which you can use to create resources. Some of these products are explained in this section.

Font Library Services Facility (FLSF)

This product allows you to define, rename, or delete fonts, code pages, and character sets. You can also add or remove characters from a font or copy characters between fonts.

Note: This product is no longer supported by IBM.

IBM AFP Font Collection

The IBM font collection offers over 1000 fonts in various formats that can be used on all AFP printers. Type Transformer can be used to convert any Adobe Type 1 font into raster or outline AFP font. FontLab can be used to design or modify fonts.

Overlay Generation Language (OGL)

This product allows you to create the overlays (electronic forms) used in your applications. It defines the constant text, lines, boxes, and shading elements that make up the electronic form. You can also include page segments in the overlay.

Graphical Data Display Manager (GDDM)

This product is a collection of programs used to edit graphics and images, create composite documents, and convert files to different formats.

Page Printer Formatting Aid (PPFA)

PPFA is a batch utility that generates the page definitions and form definitions used in your AFP applications. You can use this program to specify how the printer controls will process the physical sheet of paper and how the data should appear on the logical page. You can also specify colorization commands for text or overlays within the PageDef.

IBM AFP Windows Printer Driver

The IBM Windows Printer Driver allows you to convert a form created in any Windows application into a compiled OGL. This product also allows you to create page segments. The IBM AFP Windows Printer Driver also supports the basic AFP colors.

Elixir

Elixir provides a suite of products to convert your existing AFP resources for use on DocuPrint IPS printers. Each of these products is explained in the following sections. You can purchase most of these applications through Xerox.
