Using Dynamic Job Descriptor Entries (DJDEs) OVERPRINT DJDE: points to note • The OVERPRINT DJDE normally takes effect on the next record following an END DJDE. If FONTINDEX has been invoked in a JDE or DJDE, OVERPRINT takes effect at the next logical page boundary. • OVERPRINT options are the same as for the LINE OVERPRINT parameter. • FONTINDEX and OVERPRINT: When used in conjunction with OVERPRINT, FONTINDEX is handled as follows: - For OVERPRINT=PRINT, the printing system overprints records analogously to an impact printer if the fonts are the same size. If the fonts differ, records are overprinted without regard to character spacing. - For OVERPRINT=MERGE, the system replaces blank characters in the previously printable line, if this print record overprints the line. Character spacing values are adjusted; thus, proportionally spaced or different size fonts may be used, and the system performs the character placement. Blank characters in the previous printable line are replaced only when they are translated using the CODE table into an ASCII X'20' or into a character value greater than that of the highest character in the specified font.
