When you define a copy, you can specify print attributes at this level as well. You can override print attributes or default to the attributes specified at the print definition or APU level.

Font Installation Considerations

APU installation loads the APU software on to the iSeries and creates the QAPU library. During the installation process, APU builds the font database. APU provides a standard interface to the fonts on the system and must synchronize its database with the actual fonts that are resident on the system.

If you are adding AFP fonts to your system while you are installing APU, you should load the fonts prior to installing APU. If you add font libraries after installing APU, you will need to synchronize the font database again. To do this, issue the following command to run the synchronization program:

call qapu/qypusync

After APU is installed, you can access the APU Main Menu by entering GO

QAPU/APU.

Review Document Resource Requirements

APU creates complex electronic documents, combining many elements into each completed page. The building blocks of these electronic pages are electronic overlays, fonts, bar codes, and images (that are called page segments in AFP). The example below, output from an invoicing application for the Super Sun Seeds Company, illustrates those elements:
