Configuring Xprint V7.0

6.9Administering forms

To make it easier for users to work with forms or constantly recurring document formats, forms can be defined under Xprint V7.0. Such a form is an object with a name which is stored in the Xprint V7.0 database. In this object, different parameters (paper size, margins, default font, etc.) are stored and these can then be assigned to a print job via the object name whenever required. Xprint V7.0 then applies the formatting parameters automatically to the print job.

Furthermore, it is possible to define a default form for every printer which is automatically used for all the print jobs sent to this printer.

Xprint V7.0 is supplied with a default form called GENERIC. This is assigned the default font GENERIC that is also supplied with Xprint V7.0 (see section “Admin- istering fonts” on page 152) as well as the default settings for all the options of the

xpadd -frm command.
