Page 212 highlights

What font resources are needed to print DBCS ASCII and EUC? You can use the db2afp command to transform DBCS ASCII and EUC files that use these code pages: v 932 (Japanese PC) v 950 (Traditional Chinese PC) v 33722 or eucJP (Japanese EUC) v 964 or eucTW (Traditional Chinese EUC) v 970 or eucKR (Traditional Korean EUC) Note: Code page 938 (Traditional Chinese PC) is not supported on Windows 2000. If your files use code page 938, you cannot use InfoPrint Manager for Windows on a Windows 2000 operating system to print them. Your InfoPrint Manager server must be able to access the appropriate DBCS fonts when you print the transformed files. DBCS fonts are available for the MVS, VM, Windows 2000, and AIX operating systems as separately orderable licensed programs. To make the fonts available on your InfoPrint Windows 2000 system, you must make sure that you have installed the fonts on your system and then make the double-byte fonts known to InfoPrint Manager for Windows. For more information about setting up font resources to print DBCS fonts, see "Fonts for printing DBCS ASCII and EUC" on page 262. Determining what code page your print jobs use and setting the correct environment variable Before you transform a print job, you need to determine what code page it uses, then set the PSFDBLANG environment variable to that code page. If the job was created on an AIX or a Windows workstation, you can determine the code page that the job uses by finding out what code page is active on that system. On the system that the job was created on, open a Command Prompt window and type: chcp then press Enter. The system responds with Active code page: xxx where xxx represents a three- to five-digit number. Use this number to set the PSFDBLANG environment variable with these steps. 1. On your InfoPrint Manager server system, click the Windows Start button and select Settings ->Control Panel. Note: If you have more than one InfoPrint Manager server system, you need to set this environment variable on all of the servers that contain actual destinations that will use the db2afp transform. 2. In the Control Panel window, double-click System. 3. In the System Properties dialog, click Environment. 4. In the Variable field, type PSFDBLANG. 5. In Table 23 on page 195, locate the Code Page Value that you got from your system above. 194 InfoPrint Manager for Windows: Procedures

What font resources are needed to print DBCS ASCII and
EUC?
You can use the
db2afp
command to transform DBCS ASCII and EUC files that
use these code pages:
v
932 (Japanese PC)
v
950 (Traditional Chinese PC)
v
33722 or eucJP (Japanese EUC)
v
964 or eucTW (Traditional Chinese EUC)
v
970 or eucKR (Traditional Korean EUC)
Note:
Code page 938 (Traditional Chinese PC) is not supported on Windows 2000.
If your files use code page 938, you cannot use InfoPrint Manager for Windows on
a Windows 2000 operating system to print them.
Your InfoPrint Manager server must be able to access the appropriate DBCS fonts
when you print the transformed files. DBCS fonts are available for the MVS, VM,
Windows 2000, and AIX operating systems as separately orderable licensed
programs. To make the fonts available on your InfoPrint Windows 2000 system,
you must make sure that you have installed the fonts on your system and then
make the double-byte fonts known to InfoPrint Manager for Windows.
For more information about setting up font resources to print DBCS fonts, see
“Fonts for printing DBCS ASCII and EUC” on page 262.
Determining what code page your print jobs use and setting
the correct environment variable
Before you transform a print job, you need to determine what code page it uses,
then set the PSFDBLANG environment variable to that code page. If the job was
created on an AIX or a Windows workstation, you can determine the code page
that the job uses by finding out what code page is active on that system. On the
system that the job was created on, open a
Command Prompt
window and type:
chcp
then press
Enter
. The system responds with
Active code page:
xxx
where
xxx
represents a three- to five-digit number. Use this number to set the
PSFDBLANG environment variable with these steps.
1.
On your InfoPrint Manager server system, click the Windows
Start
button and
select
Settings –>Control Panel
.
Note:
If you have more than one InfoPrint Manager server system, you need to
set this environment variable on all of the servers that contain actual
destinations that will use the
db2afp
transform.
2.
In the Control Panel window, double-click
System
.
3.
In the
System Properties
dialog, click
Environment
.
4.
In the
Variable
field, type
PSFDBLANG
.
5.
In Table 23 on page 195, locate the
Code Page Value
that you got from your
system above.
