creates AFP versions of the Xerox resources. When you submit a Xerox job, those
AFP versions of the Xerox resources must be available to InfoPrint XT. This lists
the locations in the order that InfoPrint XT searches them for the resources:
1. The path that the InfoPrint Manager resource-context document attribute
specifies.
2. The path that the PSFPATH environment variable specifies.
3. The path that the InfoPrint Manager resource-context actual destination
attribute specifies.
Notes:
1. Other InfoPrint Manager attributes specify resource paths, such as
resource-context-font and resource-context-form-definition. InfoPrint XT
ignores the path information specified with these attributes.
2. When you process jobs that contain FILE Dynamic Job Descriptor Entry (DJDE)
commands, InfoPrint XT also uses this search path hierarchy. For FILE DJDE
commands that specify the P storage parameter, InfoPrint XT loads the
associated resources in the first directory that it locates in the search order. For
example, if the resource-context document attribute specifies
%PDXTWORKDIR%\resources\pdxttest and the resource-context actual
destination attribute specifies %PDXTWORKDIR%\resources\common,
InfoPrint XT loads the FILE DJDE resources in the %PDXTWORKDIR%\
resources\pdxttest directory. For more information about FILE DJDE storage
parameters, see “Processing jobs that contain FILE DJDE commands” on page
65.
Using the pdpr command to transform and print Xerox jobs
Use the InfoPrint Manager pdpr command and a combination of attributes to print
Xerox jobs. You can specify all InfoPrint Manager job and document attributes and
all InfoPrint XT conversion parameters directly from the command line.
v To submit the job SIMPLEX, which is in the C:\Inputdata\Jobs directory, to the
pdxt-ld logical destination:
pdpr -d pdxt-ld -x document-format=metacode
-x "other-transform-options='xjdl=p1mvs xjde=dflt xrecfm=f xlrecl=133 xcc=m'"
-x "resource-context='%PDXTWORKDIR%\resources\test C:\Inputdata\Jobs\SIMPLEX'"
Using the pdxtx2afp command to process Xerox jobs
If you do not have InfoPrint Manager installed, use the InfoPrint XT pdxtx2afp
command to process a Xerox job. If you only want to convert a job without
printing it, you can also use this command in a combined InfoPrint Manager and
InfoPrint XT installation. You might find this useful to use the AFP that InfoPrint
XT generates for other purposes, or to verify that a job will convert.
Notes:
1. This topic shows the default values for pdxtx2afp command options as
supplied by InfoPrint XT. You can change the default values using the
PDXTX2AFP_ARGS environment variable. See “Controlling the default
arguments when you process jobs (PDXTX2AFP_ARGS)” on page 23. You can
also affect the default values for the pdxtx2afp command using a parameter
mapping file. See “Creating a custom parameter mapping file” on page 26.
2. You can control some aspects of the conversion process using transform
directives. See “Using transform directives” on page 29.
