Creating page segments (PSEGs)

The PSEG command creates page segments (PSEGs) for inclusion in documents to be formatted by IBM Document Composition Facility (DCF) and subsequently printed on page printers such as the IBM 3812, 3820-family, and 4250 printers.

A page segment is a copy of the graphics field, rasterized to yield a picture of a given size on a specific device. For example, a picture 100mm wide on a 4250 printer requires many more pels than a similarly sized picture on a 3820 printer, because the pels density is much higher on the 4250 (600 pels per inch versus 240).

Optionally you can create a document with a single page segment, ready to print, or you can create an unformatted black-and-white image of the screen.

Note: PSEGs can be included in your pictures using the IMAGE command described in "Basic image display" in topic 2.6.3.1.
