	Specifying print format parameters
PDE FONTS	• If different fonts are used on the same print line, character
parameter: points	heights of all fonts used in the print line are compared to find
to note	the largest font in the line. (The line spacing value that was
	defined, or specified as an override, for that font is used to
	determine the position of the next print line.)
	• The maximum number of fonts that may be used in printing a
	given page or a given job varies depending on a number of
	factors. The number of fonts specified in the FONTS
	parameter must be at least equal to the largest number of
	fonts required to print any page within the job.
	When the system is unable to receive an allocation of
	dynamic memory, the job aborts. Particularly for input, the
	limitations of dynamically allocated memory impose
	additional constraints that effectively reduce the maximum
	number of fonts that may be used to print a page. The
	number of fonts specified in the FONTS parameter
	determines the size of a dynamically allocated table where
	information about the fonts is cached.
	• An xdot is 1/600 unit of measurement. You can create, edit,
	and compile a form specifying XDOTS on any Xerox laser
	printing system (other than the FreeFlow Print Server LCDS
	systems) with version 3 or higher software. The 600 spi form
	does not print on the FreeFlow Print Server LCDS systems,
	which accept only 300 spi data.
	PDE PMODE
	Specifies the printing mode (orientation) for each physical sheet.

Option	Definition
LANDSCAPE	Indicates that printing will be parallel to the long edge of paper (for
	paper loaded with its long edge facing the feed direction). Print
	lines on 11 by 17 inch or A3 paper are parallel to the short edge.
PORTRAIT	Indicates that printing will be parallel to the short edge of paper (for
	paper loaded with its long edge facing the feed direction). Print
	lines on 11 by 17 inch or A3 paper are parallel to the long edge.
