<p>Absolute positioning means being able to start printing at any point on
|
||
|
|
a piece of paper by specifying that point.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Use of absolute positioning requires the Advanced Function Presentation™ data stream. This is obtained on i5/OS by specifying *AFPDS on the device
|
||
|
|
type (DEVTYPE) parameter of the printer file.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Inches or centimeters are the measurement methods available. You choose
|
||
|
|
the measurement method by specifying *INCH or *CENT on the unit of measure
|
||
|
|
(UOM) parameter of the printer file.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The following shows DDS coding using the absolute method of positioning.</p>

<p>In this example, a page segment called LOGO is specified to start printing
|
||
|
|
at 1.5 units down and 1 unit in. The TEXT record (Made in the USA) is supplied
|
||
|
|
by the application program. The UOM parameter value (*INCH or *CM) of the
|
||
|
|
printer file determines which unit of measurement is used.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The following figure shows the output achieved using absolute positioning.
|
||
|
|
This figure highlights the additional features that absolute positioning provides
|
||
|
|
by using boxes (indicating where the stamp goes) and page segments (the pencil-type
|
||
|
|
logo).</p>
