Intermate AS/400, i5, iSeries manual ?=IF...THEN conditional nesting of overlays

some scanning utilities which saves TIFF reversed. Note, that performance wise it is better to reverse if necessary during install of the image in InterForm400 - refer to page 319 for more information.

Resolution:The resolution by which the image was scanned. This option can also be used to scale the image. For example an image scanned in 300 dpi can be scaled to double size in the print out by entering 150 here. Entering 600 here will cause the same image to be scaled to half size, but only if the printer supports a 600 dpi resolution (HP4 and compatibles). The resolution of 200 dpi is commonly used if the overlay is intended for faxing through the BlueFax fax program also.

Color Printing: When working in a file-set defined for color printing the Image settings will have an additional definition for color images. The resolution of the color image can be adjusted from the original settings, by stating an specific resolution for Horisontal and Vertical values, respectively. (1-600 DPI).

If the resolution settings are left blank, the original resolution settings of the imported image will be used.

The Black/White image definition is available to facilitate printing of the same overlay both on black and white and color laser printers.

M WARNING M

Note that you can not specify rotation. An image always has the orientation specified in the global settings for the overlay.

?=IF...THEN (conditional nesting of overlays)

This feature is useful in the situation where the appearance of the overlay has to be dependent of the text that is merged with the overlay. This can be caused by a spool entry containing two or more different print outs, say invoices and credit notes, and where you want different overlays on the individual printout.

Another use of the "If..then" feature is the case where a detail in the printout shall result in adding an extra detail to the overlay (see example page 101). Finally the If..then feature can be used for formatting print lines or groups of print lines appearing in random line positions (see example page 107)
