Specifying print format parameters Options Table 4-89. ROUTE RTEXT parameter options and definitions Option Definition sc string constant. Specifies the message to be printed (a string of 1 to 132 characters). It is printed with the first font specified in the FONTS parameter of the PDE command. Refer to the fontindex option in this table. passnum pass number. An integer specifying the single copy (pass) to which the text applies. If there is more than one RTEXT parameter in a DJDE packet, passnum must be in increasing numeric order. ALL Specifies that the text applies to all copies. line Specifies the line number on which the first line of a block of RTEXT message is printed. To avoid overprinting, only one RTEXT parameter may be specified per line for a passnum. The default is line 1 for the first text string of the pass. Otherwise, the default is the next line of the page. col column. Specifies the column number at which the first character of a block of RTEXT messages is to be printed. The default is column 1. fontindex Identifies the font index (starting with 1) of the PDE font with which the text is printed. rtextid routing text identifier. References a catalogued file of RTEXT parameters previously compiled by XJDC. NONE Specifies that no routing text will be printed on a separate page. Default NONE ROUTE RTEXT parameter: points to note • The font index is associated only with a particular string. To print an entire RTEXT page in the same font, you must specify the font index with each string. For strings without a fontindex specified, the system uses the first font (specified in the PDE FONTS parameter). • The positioning of the first line of data on the page following an RTEXT page is determined by font 0 of the current font list. • If more than one font is used to print any number of RTEXT strings on a page, the line and the character spacing values of the different fonts are used to place RTEXT on the page.
