<h3 id="rzau6values">Printer file parameters used with line and mixed data</h3>
<p>There are several printer file parameters that can be used when working
with line and mixed data. These parameters can all be specified on the Create
Printer File (CRTPRTF), Change Printer File (CHGPRTF), and Override with Printer
File (OVRPRTF) CL commands.</p>
<dl>
<dt class="bold">AFP&trade; characters (AFPCHARS) </dt>
<dd>This parameter identifies up to four 4-byte coded font names. The 4-byte
names are concatenated to <span class="hex">X'0'</span>. The names identify the coded fonts
that are needed when table reference characters are used in line or mixed
data.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">Control character (CTLCHAR) </dt>
<dd>This parameter specifies the type of control characters (American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) or machine code) that are in the line or mixed
data.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">Convert line data (CVTLINDTA) </dt>
<dd>This parameter specifies whether line data is converted to Advanced Function Presentation&trade; data stream (AFPDS) before the data is spooled. A page definition specifies
how the data is formatted.
</dd>
<dt class="bold"> DBCS character rotation (IGCCHRRTT) </dt>
<dd>For non-AFP printers, this parameter is used to rotate the double-byte
character set (DBCS) data when line data is transformed to SNA Character Stream
(SCS). For AFP printers, this parameter is ignored. Character rotation can be specified
in the page definition.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">DBCS characters per inch (IGCCPI) </dt>
<dd>For non-Advanced Function Presentation (AFP) printers, this parameter specifies the
pitch of the DBCS data during transformation from line data to SCS. DBCS shift-out,
shift-in (SOSI) characters cannot be transformed when going to an Intelligent
Printer data stream (IPDS&trade;) printer. Mixed data cannot be transformed when going
to an SCS or IPDS printer. For AFP printers, this parameter is ignored, as the pitch of
the DBCS data is determined by the selected font.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">DBCS SO/SI spacing (IGCSOSI) </dt>
<dd>This parameter indicates what action should be taken when SOSI characters
are found in the data. If the data is mixed, the SOSI should be taken out
and appropriate spaces inserted based on the value of this keyword.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">Printer device type (DEVTYPE) </dt>
<dd>Use this parameter to place line data or mixed data onto the printer
spool.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">Table reference characters (TBLREFCHR) </dt>
<dd>This parameter indicates whether table reference characters (TRC) exist
in the line or mixed data. If forms control characters are used with the data,
the TRC follows the forms control character, but precedes the data bytes.
If forms control characters are not used, the TRC is the first byte of the
data record. If table reference characters are used, every data record must
contain a TRC byte.
</dd>
<dt class="bold"> User-specified DBCS data (IGCDTA) </dt>
<dd>This parameter specifies whether the file processes DBCS data. If so,
the user of a line or mixed data file must specify *YES to indicate that there
are SOSI characters in the data.
</dd>
