successfully. If you do not specify this command option, InfoPrint
XT uses a subdirectory of the directory that the PDXTWORKDIR
environment variable specifies as the working directory. InfoPrint
XT builds a subdirectory name of jobname-jobid-n. jobname and jobid
come from the -p -opa values, and n is a sequence number. For
more information about the PDXTWORKDIR environment
variable, see “Controlling the working directory that InfoPrint XT
uses for variable data (PDXTWORKDIR)” on page 22.
Notes:
1. Any directory that you specify must exist; InfoPrint XT does
not create the directory for you.
2. InfoPrint XT ignores the -k transform directive when you
specify a working directory with the -w command option.
3. Whether files remain in a user-specified working directory
depends on the severity and the type of error.
4. Only one instance of the pdxtx2afp command can use a given
working directory at a time. This is because the pdxtx2afp
command creates and uses files that are not job-specific. For
example, the command writes messages to the x2afp.lst file. If
two instances of the command share the same working
directory, you lose the messages from one of the instances.
Streams used by the pdxtx2afp command
The pdxtx2afp command uses file descriptors while it processes Xerox jobs:
fd0 (STDIN) You can pass the Xerox data stream as standard input to file
descriptor zero.
fd1 (STDOUT)
You can instruct InfoPrint XT to write the AFP data stream that
results from conversion to file descriptor one.
fd2 (STDERR)
InfoPrint XT writes messages from the conversion process to
standard error.
Return codes from the pdxtx2afp command
Return codes from the pdxtx2afp command have these meanings:
0 The command successfully produced one or more AFP pages.
EINVAL The parameter list for the command contains arguments that are
not valid.
E2BIG The parameter list for the command contains too many arguments.
ENOATTR A parameter is missing.
ECONNABORTED
The command converted the job, but it produced no pages because
of a non-zero return code from an associated subcommand.
ECONNRESET
The command converted the job, but it produced no pages.
Associated subcommands had return codes of zero.
