Specifying print format parameters

VFU command example

Following is an example of how to use the VFU command.

In the following example, top of form is assigned to line number 5 and bottom of form is assigned to line number 55. Channels 1, 2, and 12 have been assigned line numbers.

V1: VFU

ASSIGN=(1,5),

 

ASSIGN=(2,(10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50)),

 

ASSIGN=(12,55), TOF=5, BOF=55;

Assume the printing system is printing a report and the current line number is 11.

If a Skip To Channel 1 And Print parameter is issued, a page transition occurs. Printing begins on line 5 (assigned to channel 1), which is the top of form on the new page.

If a Skip to Channel 2 And Print parameter is issued when the current line number is 11, the next line to be printed is line 15 of the current page. Lines 10, 15, 20, and so forth, are also assigned to channel 2, but because the current line number is 11, the next consecutive line number assigned to channel 2 (greater than 11) is line 15.

If a Skip To Channel 12 And Print parameter is issued, the next line to be printed is line 55 of the current page.
