<h3 id="rzau6crtafp">Create AFP data</h3>
<p>This topic contains information about several different ways to generate Advanced Function Presentation&trade; (AFP&trade;) data.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Create AFP data by using a printer file</span></p>
<p>You can create AFP data on the iSeries server from applications using a printer
file with the device type (DEVTYPE) parameter value set to *AFPDS.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Create AFP data by using DDS keywords</span></p>
<p>You can create AFP data with Data description specifications (DDS) printing
functions that are tailored for use with AFP.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Create AFP data by using IBM&reg; Infoprint&reg; Server for iSeries&trade;</span></p>
<p>Infoprint Server has a Create AFP Data (CRTAFPDTA) command that lets you
transform line (*LINE) or mixed (*AFPDSLINE) data into AFP (*AFPDS) data.
It can also take an AFP file as input and generate an AFP stream file. It can index a document for
viewing, archiving, or document retrieval. Optionally, it retrieves and packages
the AFP resources that are needed for printing or viewing. Refer to the Infoprint Server for iSeries: User's Guide for instructions to use
the CRTAFPDTA command.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Create AFP data by using the AFP printer driver for Windows&reg; 2000
and XP</span></p>
<p>The AFP printer driver creates AFP documents, overlays, and page segments
from your Windows 2000/XP applications. For more information
about the AFP printer driver or to download the printer driver, see the <a href="http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=psd1P4000187" target="_blank">AFP Driver for Windows 2000 and XP Web page</a>

<p><span class="bold">Create AFP data by using IBM Advanced Function Printing&trade; Utilities for iSeries</span></p>
<p>By using the IBM Advanced Function Printing Utilities for iSeries (AFP Utilities) licensed program, you can create and print AFP data from an
existing database file, merged with an overlay. For more information about
this licensed program, see AFP Utilities for AS/400&reg;. This publication is available on the <a href="http://www.elink.ibmlink.ibm.com/public/applications/publications/cgibin/pbi.cgi" target="_blank">IBM Publications Center Web page</a>
