Using OVERRUN

Table 1 shows the listing of segments of a copy modification module where an overrun warning was in order. Even if the OPTION statement specifies OVERRUN=0 and the overrun warning message is not printed, a note is printed to the left of each segment description for which an overrun is possible.

Factors used in determining a line overrun condition are:

Number of modifications per line
Number of segments per module

Combining COPYMOD segments reduces the possibility of a line overrun condition.

Notes: Indicates that you may have a copy modification overrun if you are printing at 12 LPI. Indicates that you may have a copy modification overrun if you are printing at 8 LPI. Indicates that you may have a copy modification overrun if you are printing at 8 or 12 LPI. Indicates that you may have a copy modification overrun if you are printing at 6, 8, or 12 LPI; in other words, you may have an overrun at any LPI.
