Lines and borders

OGL v1.1 supports color using the DRAWRULE, DRAWMASK and

DRAWBOX commands.

Example:

DRAWRULE...COLOR BLUE

You can use either OGL, DCF/Script or ElixirForm for AFP to colorize lines and borders in your document. This section explains the procedures for both products.

Using DCF/Script

To colorize lines or borders in a DCF/Script document, add the .DR (define rule) keyword to the document. For example, to create a red line that is .6 millimeters (mm) long, add this command:

.DR HEAD1 WEIGHT .6MM COLOR RED

Note: If you add the COLOR command to the .DR keyword, you must also update your Logical Device Table and Physical Device Table to support color.

Using Elixir Desktop for AFP

To colorize existing black lines and borders, follow this procedure:

Step 1. With the left mouse button, select the “up arrow” key in the tool box.

Step 2. Move the mouse to the object you wish to colorize and select it using the right mouse button.

Step 3. To change the border of the object, select the pencil icon.

The system displays the eight color selections at the bottom of the screen.

Step 4. Select the color you wish to use with the left mouse button.

The line changes from black to the selected color.

To draw a new color graphic object in your form, select all of the ink and shaded patterns before you draw the object. Select the “draw box” icon, then draw the object.
