on the page. Form definitions can specify overlays, a paper source for cut-sheet printer devices, duplexed printing, text suppression, data position, and the number and modifications of pages. Page definitions Page definitions contain the formatting controls for line data. Page definitions can include controls for the number of lines per logical page, font selection, print direction, and the mapping of individual fields to positions on the logical page. Page segments Page segments contain text and images that you can include at any addressable point on a page or an electronic overlay. Overlays Overlays are collections of predefined data such as lines, shading, text boxes, or logos, that can merge with variable data on a page or a form during printing or transmission. You use the pdcreate command to identify the directory or directories where the AFP resources reside and provide a name for the resource-context object. You use the AFP Resources tab of the actual destination and default document attributes notebooks in the InfoPrint Manager Administration GUI, or the Command Prompt window from an InfoPrint Manager for Windows server, to identify the resource-context object name or which paths you want to associate with that object. Jobs can also reference resource-context objects through their contained documents. See "The search order for AFP resources" for the search order InfoPrint uses to locate resource-context objects for a job. Both the actual destination and the resource-context objects that are referenced must reside in the same InfoPrint server. You can also purchase additional resources or even create your own custom resources. To create page definitions and form definitions, you can purchase the Page Printer Formatting Aid (PPFA) for Windows, which is an optional feature of InfoPrint Manager for Windows. The search order for AFP resources This section describes the order and the conditions on which InfoPrint searches for AFP resources: 1. For fonts, paths specified by the -osrchfontlib keyword on the enq, lp, qprt, or lprafp command 2. Paths specified by the -oreslib keyword on the enq, lp, qprt, or lprafp command 3. The path specified by the resource-context-user document attribute. 4. The paths specified by one of these document attributes, depending on the type of resource: v resource-context-font v resource-context-form-definition v resource-context-overlay v resource-context-page-definition v resource-context-page-segment 110 InfoPrint Manager for AIX: Procedures

cut-sheet printer devices, duplexed printing, text suppression, data
position, and the number and modifications of pages.
Page definitions
Page definitions contain the formatting controls for line data. Page
definitions can include controls for the number of lines per logical page,
font selection, print direction, and the mapping of individual fields to
positions on the logical page.
Page segments
Page segments contain text and images that you can include at any
addressable point on a page or an electronic overlay.
Overlays
Overlays are collections of predefined data such as lines, shading, text
boxes, or logos, that can merge with variable data on a page or a form
during printing or transmission.
You use the
pdcreate
command to identify the directory or directories where the
AFP resources reside and provide a name for the resource-context object. You use
the
AFP Resources
tab of the actual destination and default document attributes
notebooks in the InfoPrint Manager Administration GUI, or the
Command Prompt
window from an InfoPrint Manager for Windows server, to identify the
resource-context object name or which paths you want to associate with that object.
Jobs can also reference resource-context objects through their contained documents.
See “The search order for AFP resources” for the search order InfoPrint uses to
locate resource-context objects for a job. Both the actual destination and the
resource-context objects that are referenced must reside in the same InfoPrint
server.
You can also purchase additional resources or even create your own custom
resources. To create page definitions and form definitions, you can purchase the
Page Printer Formatting Aid (PPFA) for Windows, which is an optional feature of
