What Can I Do with ACIF?

AFP Conversion and Indexing Facility (ACIF) is a batch application devel utility you can use to:

ŸConvert line data or mixed data into MO:DCA-P data, which is an arc device-independent data stream used for interchanging documents bet different platforms

ŸIndex a document to enhance your ability to view, archive, or r pages or groups of pages from large documents; createindex a separat

object filefrom the indexing tags

ŸRetrieve and package AFP resources needed for printing or viewing document and place them in a separate file, so that you can pri exact document, possibly years after its creation

Figure 1 on page 4 shows a high-level overview of how the ACIF applic development utility fits into an installation's AFP process for creating, viewing, and printing documents.
