Example -- ISPF Processing panel for the AFP to PostScript transform

Figure 7 shows the ISPF panel that you use to specify the AFP to PostScript transform in a printer definition. Only a portion of the Processing panel is shown. This example uses the afpxps_eu transform class from the aopxfd.conf file.

Explanation of fields:

• The Line data, MO:DCA-P, and XML data formats are selected because the afpxps.dll filter can transform these data formats to PostScript format. The transform options are:
  • The -c filter option causes the transform to use the eu transform class, which is defined in the transform configuration file.
  • The %filter-options filter option lets the job submitter override the transform class because it is specified to the right of the -c filter option.
• The Text and PostScript data formats are selected because the printer can accept these data formats. The aopfiltr.so filter is specified for Text data because Print Interface uses this filter.
• The Resubmit for filtering field is selected so that IP PrintWay™ basic mode calls Print Interface to transform documents submitted from batch applications.
• In the Fail on error field, option Error is selected. If a data stream error occurs during the transform, the transform fails and does not create an output document.
• In the Trailer error page field, option No is selected. The transform does not write any warning or error messages to a trailer error page.
