idaXFC batch Software Installation and Modification

idaXFC batch Installation Procedure

Generation of the Load Library

Creation of a load library will be required for the program modules supplied in object code. The BLDXFC JCL invokes the IBM IEWL utility to generate the idaXFC batch program load modules. Modify the data set name and volser information on the Load Module DCB statement to match your installation defaults.

Note: The idaXFC batch load module is reentrant and reusable.

The steps described below should be performed prior to using the idaXFC batch.

Install the supplied Fonts and Codepages

A minimal of sample AFP fonts in the CG Courier typeface are provided on the installation tape in 300 pel.

These fonts have been provided as samples only, to allow for installation validation, and can be used in conjunction with AFP generator programs, and for printing with idaXFC and IBM AFP printers.

If required, these fonts (and associated code pages) can be installed in an existing 300 pel font libraries.

Customize the XES Translation

The supplied XES translation source, XESTRANS can be modified to alter:

XES to AFP font selection (including codepage)

XES Lead-in and Lead-out strings

Page length and margins

External DD name for FORMS references

Default User Defined Key (UDK)

Modifying the sixel decoding table

Default EBCDIC language translation (codepage)

If any modifications are required to these values, refer to the steps described in "XES Transform modifications" on page 36 for additional information. The XESTRANS module will need to be relinked prior to proceeding.
