rotation. The number of degrees a graphic character is turned relative to the page coordinates.

S

segment. Synonym for page segment.

sheet. A division of the physical medium on which data is presented. The IPDS architecture defines 4 types of sheet: cut-sheet forms, continuous forms, envelopes, and computer output on microfilm. Each sheet has a front side and a back side. Some types of media consist of multiple sheets; for example, a roll of continuous forms can be divided at the perforations into rectangular sheets. Each sheet usually has carrier or tractor-feed strips, also. Microfilm is another example of a medium comprising multiple sheets, whereas an envelope has only one sheet. Synonymous with form.

simplex printing. Printing on only one side of the paper. Contrast with duplex printing.

single-byte coded font. A font in which the characters are defined by a one-byte code point. A single-byte coded font contains only one coded font section. Contrast with double-byte coded font.

spooled file. A file created by an application program that contains the actual information to be printed and some of the data that controls the format of the printing. Spooled files can contain MO:DCA-P data, line data, or a combination of MO:DCA-P and line data.

structured field. A self-identifying, variable-length, bounded record that can have a content portion that provides control information, data, or both.

syntax. The rules and keywords that govern the use of a programming language.

T

table reference characters (TRC). An optional control character in an input record that identifies the font with which the record is to be printed. The table reference character corresponds to a font number defined in a page definition font list or to the order of font names listed in the CHARS parameter in the JCL.

tag. A type of structured field used for indexing in an AFP document. Tags associate an index attribute - value pair with a specific page or group of pages in a document.

terminate. (1) To stop the operation of a system or device. (2) To stop execution of a program.

text. A graphic representation of information on an output medium. Text can consist of alphanumeric characters and symbols arranged in paragraphs, tables, columns, or other shapes.

token ring. A network configuration in which tokens are passed in a circuit from node to node. A node that is ready to send can capture the token and insert data for transmission.

trace. A record of the execution of a computer program. It exhibits the sequences in which the instructions were executed. (A)

TRC. See table reference character.

trigger. Data values for which CRTAFPDTA searches, to delineate the beginning of a new group of pages. The first trigger is then the anchor point from which CRTAFPDTA locates the defined index values. See anchor point.

U

upload. (1) To transfer programs or data from a connected device, typically a personal computer, to a computer with greater resources. (T) (2) To transfer data from a device, such as a workstation or a microcomputer, to a computer. Contrast with download.

V

Viewer. See AFP Workbench Viewer.

X

X-axis.In printing, an axis perpendicular to the direction in which the paper moves through the printer. See also Y-axis.

X-extent.A measurement along the X-axis.

Y

Y-axis.In printing, an axis parallel to the direction in which the paper moves through the printer. See also X-axis.

Y-extent.A measurement along the Y-axis.
