InfoPrint commands process options from left to right. If you enter the same option more than once, InfoPrint uses the last occurrence of the flag to determine the value to use. For example, if you specify this command: tiff2afp -Cconfig.file -r240 -r300 myfile.tif the tiff2afp command transforms the file using 300-pel resolution. InfoPrint ignores the resolution value specified in the configuration file config.file and the first -r240 flag and value. 2. Values specified in the default transform command configuration file named in Table 22 on page 165. 3. Transform environment variables that you set with the export command, if you enter the transform command directly. InfoPrint ignores these environment variables if you invoke the transform command indirectly by submitting a job to print. 4. Transform environment variables in the .profile file in your home directory. 5. Transform environment variables in the /etc/environment file. 6. Default values that are built into InfoPrint. These are the same as the transform defaults. Customizing the img2afp transform The img2afp transform can be used to transform color (FS45) images into monochrome bilevel (FS10) images for printing. This transform is valuable for transforming color images so that they print well in black-and-white. You can customize the img2afp transform only by specifying options on the command line. Unlike other transforms shipped with the InfoPrint Manager, this transform is not invoked automatically. Instead, you must specify it at the command line to preprocess the data before printing. For specific information about the syntax and use of this command, see InfoPrint Manager: Reference. While you can create an img2afp.cfg file, InfoPrint Manager supplies a series of img2afp.cfg configuration files that are based on the printer model. For example, the img2afp.4000-708cfg file on an InfoPrint Manager for AIX server contains these settings: #img2afp Infoprint 4000-708 configuration file a=fs10 respath=.:/usr/lpp/psf/config thresh=4000-708.ibm106lpi.ta.ps gcorr=4000-708.ibm106lpi.tf.dt.ps pagetype=page v=yes r=600 img2afp.cfg files observe these basic rules: Notes: 1. Any item specified in a configuration file can be overridden on the command line. 2. Configuration file syntax is attribute = value. 3. A hash mark (#) indicates a comment to the end of the line. 4. All attribute names are the same as the command-line names. 5. For options that do not take values, you must type yes in the configuration file (as shown below). Chapter 15.
