The Open List of PDF Map Information (QPQOLPM) API lists entries from a PDF Map object and places the list in a receiver variable. The size of the receiver variable determines the amount of information returned. You can access additional records by using the Get List Entries (QGYGTLE) API. On successful completion of the API, a handle is returned in the list information parameter. You may use this handle on subsequent calls to the following APIs:
