Creating a Character Arrangement Table Module z/OS DFSMSdfp Utilities SC23-6864-00 |
|
The 3800 character arrangement table module is fixed length and
consists of three sections:
The character arrangement table is created using the INCLUDE, TABLE, and NAME utility control statements. The INCLUDE statement identifies an existing character arrangement table that is to be copied and used as a basis for the new module. The TABLE statement describes the contents of the new or modified module. The NAME statement identifies the character arrangement table and indicates whether it is new or is to replace an existing module with the same name. The OPTION statement with the DEVICE=3800M3 parameter should be specified when printing an existing character arrangement table for a 3800 Model 3. This is to ensure that the system assigns the correct prefix to the graphic modification module name associated with the character arrangement table. Note: The character arrangement table you select mightnot include all the characters in a character
set. The character arrangement table corresponds to a print train,
which is sometimes a subset of one or more complete character sets.
When the character set is loaded, all characters of the set (up to
64) are loaded into the printer's WCGM; only those characters that
are referred to by a translation table can be printed.
