Tag

Description

 

 

<jobname>

The page buffer name without the page number prefix and without char-

 

acters illegal to the operating system. White space characters are used, if

 

present in the job name.

 

This tag ensures that only legal operating system characters are used in

 

the job name.

 

For example, in the RIP running under any Windows operating system,

 

the template <jobname><dot>hpf produces the file name

 

Uncalibrated Target Default CMYK + spot colors target.hp

 

f. The colon character ( : ) is removed from the file name, because this

 

is not a valid file name character for any version of Microsoft Windows.

<jobname1>

The page buffer name without the page number prefix, and using only

 

alphanumeric characters (a-z, A-Z, 0-9). White space characters are not

 

used.

 

This tag ensures that only alphanumeric characters are used in the job

 

name.

 

For example, in the RIP running under a Windows operating system, the

 

template <jobname1><dot>hpf produces the file name

 

UncalibratedTargetDefaultCMYKspotcolorstarget.hpf. The

 

colon, white space, and ‘+’ characters are removed from the file name,

 

because they are not alphanumeric characters.

 

 

<jobonly>

This gives the job name without the separation name in brackets, For

 

example, where <jobname> would give myjob(PANTONE Reflex

 

Blue CVC), <jobonly> will give myjob.

<page#>

The page number (allocated by the RIP), within the current job. For

 

example: 002.

 

You can use this tag to include the page number in the file name string.

 

For example, the template <page#><dot>hpf produces a file name of

 

the form 001.hpf. It is advisable to use this tag with the <job#> tag to

 

differentiate between the same pages of different jobs.

 

 

<prefix>

The page number prefix from the page buffer name, such as 1., 2., and

 

so on.

 

You can use this tag to include the page number prefix from the page

 

buffer name in the file name string.

 

For example, based on the page buffer name above, the template

 

<prefix><jobname><dot>hpf produces the file name 1.

 

Uncalibrated Target Default CMYK + spot colors

 

target.hpf.

<prefixonly>

You can use this tag to include the characters from the prefix before the

 

full stop in the job name (that is, the prefix, not including the dot and

 

space characters).
