copies of the file are created. If the template contains just static tags (such as <jobname>, where the job name remains constant), a single output file is created because previous files are overwritten.
Tag | Description |
|
|
<ascii> | Limits the character set of the file name (from the point of the tag onwards) |
| to ascii characters in the range 32 (0x20) to 126 (0x7E). Characters outside |
| this range are discarded. To substitute invalid characters rather than dis- |
| carding them, prefix the tag with the substitution character value in deci- |
| mal. |
|
|
<dos> | Verifies that the file name is a legal file name for the |
| system. |
| The use of this tag verifies that the file name is suitable for use in a DOS |
| operating system. Illegal characters such as a colon, and white space char- |
| acters cause an error. |
| For example, the template <dos><jobname><dot>hpf, would generate an |
| illegal file name because the job name could be greater than the eight char- |
| acters allowed in DOS operating systems. Truncation can be forced by |
| using the template <dos><8jobname><dot>hpf, which produces the file |
| name Uncalibr.hpf. |
<mac> | Verifies that the file name is a legal file name for the Macintosh operating |
| system. |
| The use of this tag verifies that the file name is suitable for use in a |
| Macintosh operating system. Illegal characters such as an asterisk, colon, |
| and quotation marks cause an error. The maximum length of a file name is |
| |
| For example, using the template <mac><28jobname><dot>hpf produces |
| the file name Uncalibrated Target Default.hpf, in which the colon |
| has been removed. |
|
|
<macosx> | Verifies that the file name is a legal file name for the Mac OS X operating |
| system. |
<unix> | Verifies that the file name is a legal file name for the UNIX operating |
| system. |
| The use of this tag verifies that the file name is suitable for use in the |
| UNIX operating system. Illegal characters such as an asterisk, colon, and |
| quotation marks cause an error. The <dot> tag cannot be used with this tag |
| because file names in UNIX are composed of a single string and are not |
| considered to have separate file extensions. |
| For example, using the template <unix><255jobname>.hpf produces the |
| file name UncalibratedTargetDefaultCMYK+spotcolorstarget.hpf, |
| in which the colon and white space characters have been removed. |
|
|
<win32> | Verifies that the file name is a legal file name for Windows operating |
| systems: |
| The use of this tag verifies that the file name is suitable for use in a |
| Windows operating system. Illegal characters such as an asterisk, colon, or |
| quotation marks cause an error. |
| For example, the template <win32><jobname><dot>hpf produces the file |
| name Uncalibrated Target Default CMYK + spot colors |
| target.hpf, in which the colon has been removed. |
