BASIC CONCEPTS

including: switching paper trays, offsetting certain pages or logically repositioning a page, be performed during the printing process. Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS PDL/DJDE Reference for more information on these command functions.

DJDE A Dynamic Job Descriptor Entry (DJDE) command enables you to modify the printing environment dynamically. These commands are inserted into the input data stream to modify command characteristics of the existing JDE. DJDEs can take effect on a report-to-report, page-to-page, and record-to-record basis. Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS PDL/DJDE Reference for more information.

CME A Copy Modification Entry (CME) command enables you to replace certain parts of a report with predefined static data on selected copies or to specify font changes within the variable data. Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS PDL/DJDE Reference for more information.

Output

The final production phase is output. The Xerox LPS provides powerful finishing and disbursement features. You can have a true cover-to-cover printing process on any job. This means that an inventory stock report job could have:

·Blue card stock front cover, with the title in a 24-point bold font

·Forty-nine pages of equipment inventory, with the last page designed to summarize totals

·Thirty-seven pages of equipment description, with pricing information removed and a shaded grid filling all page columns

·A matching blue card stock back cover printed on the reverse side with ªEND OF REPORTº in a 14-point bold font.

Each copy of the inventory report can be offset in a stacker bin (no offsetting in the sample tray) for easy identification, with a routing sheet on top of each offset stack which contains such information as ªJones and Smith Supplies, Inc.º This particular feature is useful when individual copies must be separated for binding or distribution to different groups. By adding the optional bypass transport and a third-party finisher to your 4635 LPS, you expand your finishing choices for your report to include options such as making it into a booklet and shrink wrapping it.

Job source library (JSL) files

Print description language (PDL) commands are used to describe the data layout and provide instructions for data placement on a page with or without an FDL-created form. The JSL file contains PDL statements defining the format of the input, processing requirements, and the format of printed output. When the JSL file is compiled, it is referred to as a job descriptor library (JDL) file and is referenced for printing a job.

Within a JDL file, there may be one or more unique definitions for different processing features, output formats, and tape
