Appendix D. Format of the Output Document File
This appendix contains General-use Programming Interface and Associated
Guidance Information.
Although ACIF can create three separate output files, only one of the files is
required. ACIF always creates a print file in AFP data stream format. In doing so,
ACIF may create the following structured fields:
Tag Logical Element (TLE)
Begin Named Group (BNG)
End Named Group (ENG)
The TLE was described in Appendix C, “Format of the Index Object File” on
page 191; the other two structured fields will be described later in this appendix.
The examples on the next two pages illustrate the two possible AFP data stream
document formats ACIF may produce.
