<p>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.</p>
<p>USERASCII spooled files will be converted in the same manner as data streams
supplied to the <a href="QIMGCVTI.htm">Convert Image (QIMGCVTI, QimgCvtImg)
API</a>. If the input data stream is not supported, data is returned as if it
were in its final form.</p>
<p>For informational purposes, a sample flow is given to show the interaction
between the caller and the Host Print Transform API.</p>
<ul>
<li>The Host Print Transform API is called with the initialize (10) process
option.
<p>The Host Print Transform API sets any initial information and returns to the
caller.</p>
</li>
<li>The first eligible spooled file is selected for processing.
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>The Host Print Transform API is called with the transform data (30) process
option and the data to be transformed.
<p>You can use the Get Spooled File Data (QSPGETSP) API to get the data.</p>
<p>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.</p>
</li>
<li>The Host Print Transform API also can be called with the maintain state
(34) process option or the transform pages (36) process option.
<p>The maintain state process option maintains information about the
transforming of the spooled file data, but does not return the transformed
data.</p>
<p>The transform pages process option provides additional data at the start and
end of each page.</p>
<p>These process options can be intermixed with the transform data process
option; however, it is recommended that transitions occur at complete page
boundaries.</p>
</li>
<li>The Host Print Transform API is called with the end file (40) process
option.
<p>The Host Print Transform API returns to the caller any remaining data to be
sent to the printer.</p>
</li>
<li>The caller selects the next eligible spooled file to be transformed.
<p>Steps starting with the process file (20) process option are repeated.</p>
</li>
<li>All transforming completed.
<p>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.</p>
</li>
</ul>

transformed data buffer for SCS data streams.</td>

offsets and lengths for the alignment data are returned in the option specific
