Xerox 701P21091 manual Fontindex Djde

Using Dynamic Job Descriptor Entries (DJDEs)

If the nonblank character that is appended at the end of the records is not consistently present throughout the file, the preceding DJDE packet is printed on an OPRINFO page with an error message indicating that processing for the file “FILENAME” is being aborted due to a data error.

The system then deletes the partial file that was created and proceeds to process the data as variable text data.

(Refer to appendix D, “LPS tape label format,” for information on the structure of LPS labeled tape.)

File readiness Files may be used by the LCDS processor as soon as they are written to the “lcds” folder on the system disk. However, the files become effective only when they are referenced by a DJDE. For example, a font or form file becomes effective at the next page boundary when a DJDE specifies the FORMAT or FORMS parameter to invoke the new font or form file. If a file was downloaded earlier in the report and has since been replaced, the new file is not used until it is reinvoked by an appropriate DJDE.

FONTINDEX DJDE

Specifies a location in the input record of an index into the current font list. The font found in the list at the position indicated by the index is used for printing.
