12.3 Messages for file name templates
This section details possible error messages that may appear in the RIP monitor window due to the use of incorrect file name templates (see Section 8). Suggestions are offered to prevent these errors from occurring.
Filename too long for target platform
This message appears when the combined file name stem and extension are too long for the target platform. For example, the combined length of the file name stem and extension must not exceed 255 characters on a Windows platform or 31 characters on a Macintosh platform. To prevent this error, use truncated tags, as shown in the example for the <dos> tag on page 19.
File stem too long for target platform
This message appears when the file name stem is too long for the target platform. To prevent this error, restrict the length of the stem by reducing the fixed text, or by using truncated tags. The example for the <dos> tag on page 19 demonstrates truncation.
Extension too long for target platform
This message appears when the file name extension is too long for the target platform. For example, file names in UNIX are not considered to have a separate file name extension. Using the <dot> tag in conjunction with the <unix> tag would generate this error. To prevent this error, create a template such as <unix><jobname>.hpf rather than using the <dot> tag.
Full pathname too long for target platform
This message appears when the full path name (combination of the file path and the file name) is too long for the target platform. For example, in Windows operating systems the full path name must not exceed 259 characters. To prevent this error, examine the number of characters in the file path of the output file (for example, C:\SW53\RIP\FILES\) and create a template in which the combined length of the file path and the file name do not exceed the limit for the platform.
