Non-printable Xerox resources that InfoPrint XT does not use
The other types of non-printable Xerox resources that you can load through
InfoPrint XT are:
v CMD
v DAT
v FSL
v ICT
v IDR
v ISL
v JSL
v MSC
v PCH
v TMP
InfoPrint XT copies information for these non-printable resources when you load
them. InfoPrint XT does not use these resources; it copies them for reference
purposes only. For more information, see “Types of Xerox resources that you can
load” on page 38.
Xerox data stream conversion
The InfoPrint XT data stream converter reads and interprets internal Xerox entries
and commands when it converts the Xerox job to AFP.
Xerox START commands and InfoPrint XT conversion
parameters
When you print a job on a Xerox printer, you enter a specific START command to
run the job. The START command specifies the starting JDL and JDE pair to use
for the job; the JDL and JDE specify the characteristics of the job. For example, they
can specify an initial set of fonts and whether duplexing is in effect. They can also
specify carriage control assignments and the delimiters that identify Dynamic Job
Descriptor Entry (DJDE) commands. You might have a single START command
that applies to all jobs, or several START commands that apply to specific jobs.
When you submit a job to InfoPrint XT, you pass this same information to the data
stream converter using InfoPrint XT conversion parameters. For more information,
see these topics:
v Appendix A, “Conversion parameters for converting Xerox jobs,” on page 93,
which describes the InfoPrint XT parameters that you pass to the data stream
converter.
v “InfoPrint XT data stream converter messages” on page 132, which describes the
messages that the data stream converter issues.
Dynamic Job Descriptor Entries (DJDEs)
Xerox jobs can contain DJDEs, which invoke printable and non-printable Xerox
resources and control the printing environment. You can use DJDEs in both LCDS
and metacode jobs. They can make modifications to the printing environment that
the starting JDL and JDE pair specifies. The data stream converter interprets a
specific set of DJDE commands. For more information, see “Supported and
unsupported Xerox DJDE and PDL commands” on page 8.
