USER GUIDE FOR HP 6 COLOR PLUGIN
9 Content generating tags
The following tags are available and can be used in any order.
Tag | Description |
|
|
<colorant> | The color space of the device, such as DeviceCMYK or DeviceRGB. |
| The tag includes the color space of the device in the file name string. For |
| example, the template <colorant><dot>hpf produces a file name of |
| the form DeviceCMYK.hpf for a device using a CMYK color space (4- |
| colors) or a file name of the form PhotoInk.hpf for a device using a |
| PhotoInk color space |
|
|
<compression> | The form of compression used, such as Packbits. |
| You can use this tag to include the form of compression used in the file |
| name. For example, based on the job details above, the template |
| <compression><dot>hpf produces the file name Packbits.hpf. |
<date> | The date when the job is processed, in the format YYYYMMDD, unless a |
| truncated form is specified. |
| The template <date><dot>hpf produces the file name 20070129.hpf. |
| You can remove the year information by using the tag <4date> to pro- |
| duce the file name 0129.hpf. |
|
|
<dot> | Separates the stem of the file name from the file extension, and appears |
| as a period character ( . ) in the file name. For example |
| stem<dot>ext appears as stem.ext. The use of the <dot> tag enables |
| the verification of the stem and extension lengths. |
| This tag separates the file name stem from the file name extension and |
| enables the verification of their lengths. It is particularly necessary when |
| creating file names compatible with DOS and Windows, otherwise the |
| extension may be considered as part of the file name. |
| For example, the template <dos><8jobname>.hpf would cause an error |
| because the dot is removed as an illegal character and hpf is then con- |
| sidered part of the file name stem. |
<job#> | The job number allocated by the RIP. Automatic numbering means that |
| successive jobs have incremental job numbers: 000, 001, 002, 003, and |
| so on. |
| You can use this tag to include the job number in the file name string. |
| The default length of the number is three digits, so the first job number |
| created with this tag would be 000, unless a different length is specified. |
| You can specify the length of the job number by preceding the <job#> |
| tag with an integer. For example, <5job#> creates job numbers five |
| digits long. |
| In |
| ferentiate between the different pages of a job. |
