Using Dynamic Job Descriptor Entries (DJDEs) Options Table 5-60. TMODE DJDE options and definitions Option Definition width The process direction measurement that will be used to determine the pitch mode. • For normal (long edge) feeding, this is usually a measure of the short edge of the widest paper being used in the report. • For short edge feeding (SEF) this measures the long edge. Width values can range from the 7 inch equivalent to the 17 inch equivalent. widthunit Unit of measure for the width of the paper. Can be IN (inches), CM (centimeters), DOTS, or XDOTS (600 spi dots). The default width unit is IN. TOF DJDE Specifies the number of lines from the top of the logical page to the first print line (Top Of Form). Type Record oriented Syntax TOF = value Options Table 5-61. TOF DJDE options and definitions Option Definition value Specifies the Top Of Form line number. This specification is independent of channel assignments. It should be greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to the smallest line number assigned to a channel. The default is 1. TOF DJDE: points to note • The TOF DJDE is applied before processing of the first data record following the DJDE record. • Depending on the time of a page transition, the TOF DJDE may not take effect on the next record. In other words, even though a TOF DJDE is processed, a page transition may have occurred before the DJDE value could take effect. Using LCDS Print Description Language 5-71
