The Host Print Transform (OPM, QWPZHPTR; ILE, QwpzHostPrintTransform) API provides an interface to the host print transform (HPT) function. The host print transform transforms SCS or AFP data to ASCII data.
USERASCII spooled files will be converted in the same manner as data streams supplied to the Convert Image (QIMGCVTI, QimgCvtImg) API. If the input data stream is not supported, data is returned as if it were in its final form.
For informational purposes, a sample flow is given to show the interaction between the caller and the Host Print Transform API.
The Host Print Transform API sets any initial information and returns to the caller.
The Host Print Transform API is called with the process file (20) process option. The name and identifier of the spooled file is passed in the input information.
The Host Print Transform API determines if it will transform the spooled file and returns to the caller an indication whether it will transform the spooled file. The end file (40) process option must be used before another process file (20) process option is allowed.
You can use the Get Spooled File Data (QSPGETSP) API to get the data.
The Host Print Transform API transforms the data and passes back the transformed data to the caller. This step happens repeatedly until the entire spooled file has been passed to the Host Print Transform API. Alignment data also could be returned with this option.
The maintain state process option maintains information about the transforming of the spooled file data, but does not return the transformed data.
The transform pages process option provides additional data at the start and end of each page.
These process options can be intermixed with the transform data process option; however, it is recommended that transitions occur at complete page boundaries.
The Host Print Transform API returns to the caller any remaining data to be sent to the printer.
Steps starting with the process file (20) process option are repeated.
The Host Print Transform API is called with the terminate (50) process option. The Host Print Transform API cleans up any work spaces that it has created and returns to the caller.
The action for the host print transform to take. The first option should be initialize (10).
Possible values are:
| 10 (Initialize) | The Host Print Transform API sets any initial information with this option. |
| 20 (Process file) | A spooled file is available to be transformed. The spooled file name and other information is passed in the option specific input information parameter to the Host Print Transform API. The Host Print Transform API decides whether to transform the data and sets the transform file field in the output information structure. Open time commands are returned in the transformed data buffer for SCS data streams. |
| 30 (Transform data) | The Host Print Transform API is called when data is available to be transformed. The data to be transformed is passed in the spooled file data buffer parameter. This process is repeated until all data has been processed. The transformed data is returned in the transformed data buffer. If requested, alignment data is also returned. When alignment data is requested, offsets and lengths for the alignment data are returned in the option specific output information buffer parameter. |
| 34 (Maintain state) | The Host Print Transform API is called when data is available to be transformed, but the transformed data is not returned to the caller. This option is used to maintain the host print transform's state for later processing of a specific page. |
| Note: This option is valid only for SCS and AFPDS data. | |
| 36 (Transform pages) | The Host Print Transform API is called when data is available to be transformed. The data to be processed is passed in the spooled file data buffer parameter. This option is used to provide additional data at the beginning and end of each page. |
| The transformed data is returned in the transformed data buffer. | |
| Note: This option is valid only for SCS and AFPDS data. | |
| 40 (End file) | The Host Print Transform API is informed that all data has
been processed. No data is passed on this call. The Host Print Transform API
may return additional data to the caller as an append to the end of the printed
data.
This option is used even if the Host Print Transform API did not transform any data. |
| 50 (Terminate) | All processing is complete. The Host Print Transform API performs cleanup in any user spaces it used. Option 50 may be used after any other process option. |
Information that is provided to the Host Print Transform API. For the format and description of this information, see Option Specific Input Information.

Information that is returned from the Host Print Transform API to the caller. For the format and description of this information, see Option Specific Output Information.
The size, in bytes, of the option specific output information buffer.
The length of the option specific output information available. If this length is less than or equal to the length of the option specific output information buffer parameter, all available information has been returned. If this length is greater than the length of the option specific output information buffer parameter, only data up to the length provided is returned in the option specific output information buffer.
Spooled file data that has been transformed by the Host Print Transform API. The data in this buffer can be sent to a printer. Alignment data, if requested, is also returned in the transformed data buffer. The lengths and offsets of the alignment information are returned in the option specific output information buffer parameter. For the format and description of this information, see Option Specific Output Information.
This buffer must be large enough to contain all of the transformed data. As a general rule, this buffer should be twice the size of the length of the spooled file data buffer.
The size, in bytes, of the transformed data buffer.
The length of the transformed data that is available to be returned in the transformed data buffer. If this length is less than or equal to the length of the transform data buffer, all available information has been returned. If this length is greater than the length of the transformed data buffer, only data up to the length provided was returned in the transformed data buffer. The remaining data is lost. An error message, CPF6DF9, is also returned.
