<p>The

<dt class="dlterm">*A3 </dt>

<p>Specify DEVTYPE(*AFPDS) on the CRTPRTF command when
|
||
|
|
ZFOLD is specified in the file. If DEVTYPE is changed to anything other than
|
||
|
|
*AFPDS, the keyword is ignored and a warning message is issued at print time.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If
|
||
|
|
ZFOLD is specified for a printer that does not support z-fold operations,
|
||
|
|
the value specified for FIDELITY in he printer file controls whether the file
|
||
|
|
prints.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>ZFOLD is ignored at run time if it is not specified on a page
|
||
|
|
boundary. The printer is on a page boundary when no named or constant fields
|
||
|
|
are processed for a page. After a named or constant field is processed, the
|
||
|
|
printer is no longer on a page boundary. The printer is on a page boundary
|
||
|
|
again when a SKIP, SPACE, or ENDPAGE keyword is processed that causes the
|
||
|
|
printer to move to a new page.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>ZFOLD, SKIP, and SPACE keywords are processed
|
||
|
|
in the following order:</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre>SKIPB
|
||
|
|
SPACEB
|
||
|
|
ZFOLD
|
||
|
|
SPACEA
|
||
|
|
SKIPA</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>ZFOLD is in effect only for the record format specified. For
|
||
|
|
the record format in which ZFOLD is specified, the page size is changed to
|
||
|
|
the size of the paper-type specified for ZFOLD: ledger or A3. After records
|
||
|
|
with the specified record format are processed, the page size for the next
|
||
|
|
record format (if the ZFOLD keyword is not specified) is the page size specified
|
||
|
|
at the file level (CRTPRTF, CHGPRTF, or OVRPRTF command).</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>ZFOLD is in
|
||
|
|
effect for just a single sheet. If consecutive sheets are to have a z-fold
|
||
|
|
operation applied, then ZFOLD must be specified for each sheet. Printers
|
||
|
|
can support a varying maximum number of sheets number of sheets per spooled
|
||
|
|
file that have had a z-fold operation applied to them. Check your printer's
|
||
|
|
hardware reference for this information.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The reference edges supported
|
||
|
|
by a printer vary. Check your printer's hardware reference for this information.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The z-fold operation causes the current sheet to be first
|
||
|
|
folded in half inwards (so the front side of the sheet is now inside the fold)
|
||
|
|
along a line parallel to the reference edge. The half of the sheet furthest
|
||
|
|
from the reference edge is again folded in half outwards along a line parallel
|
||
|
|
to the reference edge. For example, when applied to an 11 x 17 in. sheet with
|
||
|
|
the reference edge along a short side, the result is an 8.5 x 11 in. foldout.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This
|
||
|
|
finishing operation is applied to each medium, or sheet.</p>

<p>When REC1 is printed, it is z-folded by the printer's post

|
|
<p>Only one ZFOLD keyword for each record format is valid at
|
||
|
|
any time. Even with option indicators, specifying more than one ZFOLD keyword
|
||
|
|
per record format is not valid.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The overflow line number is recomputed
|
||
|
|
if you specify ZFOLD, because the page size is either ledger or A3. The new
|
||
|
|
overflow line number maintains the distance between the overflow line and
|
||
|
|
the bottom of the page as specified in the printer file. The overflow number
|
||
|
|
specified in the printer file will be restored when processing is complete
|
||
|
|
for ZFOLD. So if the file level specifies an overflow line which is 1" from
|
||
|
|
the bottom of the page, the overflow line for a page on which ZFOLD is specified
|
||
|
|
is also 1" from the bottom of the page.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Refer to your printer's documentation
|
||
|
|
for additional information about the z-fold operation.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Option indicators
|
||
|
|
are valid for this keyword.</p>
