Xerox D63-069-00 manual XES Transform modifications, Modification of XES to AFP Font selection

XES Transform modifications

This section describes how the supplied XES translation source, XESTRANS can be modi- fied to alter the following transform attributes:

•XES to AFP font selection (including codepage)

•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)

Customization of the XESTRANS assembler source is required to tailor the operation of this transform. The default operation is designed to permit processing of datastreams that have been encoded using i-data FSL Escape or Escape Escape notation.

The format of the assembler source file requires that the notation used for Assembler source files is maintained, e.g.

•The keyword macros are placed in column one.

•Keyword macro operands are placed in column 10, together with other data defi- nitions.

•Line continuation (if required) requires an "X" in column 72, and the subsequent line must start before position 10.

•Comments statements on an empty line are indicated using an asterisk in column one. Comment statements can be placed on other lines after a single space from the last command operand.

The supplied XESTRANS assembler source indicates the standard configuration supplied with the product, and can be used as a reference example for modifications. The assem- bler source uses entry points to identify the various options that can be customized.

Note: Certain entries in this file are case sensitive.

Modification of XES to AFP Font selection

The FONTTAB entry point is used to indicate (via the FONTENT macro) which AFP fonts will be used for XES font references. The first FONTENT statement describes which AFP font will be the default font. The syntax of the FONTENT macro subparameters are as fol- lows.

•AFP Font name

The six character font member name (excluding C0) that describes the AFP font name.

•Codepage name
