the attribute name. ACIF uses this parameter only when the file is
indexed. Workbench Viewer displays this value along with the
attribute name and index value. You can use the group name to
select a group of pages to be viewed. Values are:
index1 ACIF uses the value of index1.
index
n
ACIF uses the value of the specified index (index1, index2,
index3,...index8).
imageout={asis | ioca}
Specifies the format of the image data produced by the acif command
in the output document. Values are:
asis The acif command produces all image data in the same
format that it was in the input file.
ioca The acif command produces all image data in the Image
Object Content Architecture uncompressed format.

n
[,field
n
...]
Specifies the content of the indexing tags for the entire file. A
maximum of eight indexes can be defined (index1, index2,... index8),
and each index can be made up of one or more field definitions.
If literal values are specified for every index, ACIF treats the entire file
as one page group and uses this information to index the document.
ACIF reports an error condition and terminates processing if literal
values are specified for all index
n
parameters and if any trigger
n
parameters are also specified.
For field parameters that specify data values within the file, ACIF
determines the actual location of the indexing information based on
the indexing anchor record, set by the trigger parameters.
A valid set of index parameters comprises either of the following:
field definitions containing only constant data (literal values)
field definitions containing both constant data and application data
(data fields in the print file)
You can also specify the same field parameters in more than one
index parameter.
Note: If one or more trigger
n
parameters are specified (that is, ACIF
will index the file), at least one index
n
parameter must be
specified, and that index must comprise at least one field
n
parameter value that is not a literal. ACIF reports an error
condition and terminates processing if this rule is not satisfied.
Valid components of the index
n
parameter are:
'
attribute name
' |
X
'
attribute name
'
Specifies a user-defined attribute name to be associated
with the actual index value. For example, assume
index1 is a person’s bank account number. The string
'Account Number' would be a meaningful attribute
name. The value of index1 would be the account
number (for example, 1234567). Think of the attribute
name as a label for the actual index value. This value
