Indexed data for fast navigation - solution

1. An application creates the data and puts it on the OS/400 spool.

2. The CRTAFPDTA command generates the document as an AFP stream file, puts the indexing information in an index object stream file, gathers all of the needed resources into a resource stream file, then concatenates them into a merged stream file.

3. Users can now view the indexed file on their workstation, send the file for use on another system, or archive the file.
