Specifying input parameters

As before, volume 1 is the start-of-job, and the volume specified by n is the volume that contains data for the last page that was written to the print file before the system rollover.

Input processing command descriptions

The basic PDL commands to control input processing are CODE, PCC, RECORD, SEFFNT, TCODE, and VOLUME, which are defined here. The “Using logical processing” section defines commands that specify logical functions that may be performed on either a record or page basis.

The input related PDL commands are summarized in the following table.
