PDL command categories

PDL commands are classified according to their functional categories: input, logical processing, or output (print formatting) commands. DJDEs are in a separate category, because they are specified in the data stream instead of a JSL. Descriptions of the commands are listed according to command category, within the following chapters:

•“Specifying input parameters”

•“Using logical processing”

•“Specifying print format parameters”

•“DJDE descriptions”

For a summary of all commands, refer to:

•“PDL command and DJDE summary” (appendix A)

•“PDL command quick reference” (appendix B)
