New with V5R3

With V5R3, Infoprint Server is enhanced as follows:
Intelligent routing, for comprehensive multi-channel delivery of documents
and reports based on defined recipient profiles
Multi-channel delivery includes print, Web, e-mail, and interfaces to additional
"downstream" functions such as fax and archive.
A new end user interface added to simplify the set up of Intelligent routing
applications
This new interface uses a new iSeries object, the PDF mapping object to
store profile and delivery information. The interface is in addition to the
existing user exit and iSeries Access interfaces.
The ability to re-queue print files or print file segments as AFP for additional
action
PDF security enhancement with encryption, password protection, and
revision control
PDF operational enhancements including reduced file sizes and rotation
control
PDF support for 2D barcodes (PDF417, UPS MaxiCode, and DataMatrix)
Support for full-color images using the new OS/400 Function Set 45 (FS45)
specification
Support for new "direct import" of image files from IFS
Infoprint Server processes these file types into a PDF format:
– JFIF (JPEG File Image Format, commonly referred to as JPEG)
– TIFF (Tag Image File Format)
– EPS (Encapsulated Postscript)
– EPSTR (EPS with transparency)
– PDFSPF (PDF single page)
– PDFSPOTS (PDF single page with transparency)
– PCLPO (PCL page object)
The APF object types that can be imported directly from the IFS are:
– BCOCA (AFP barcode object)
– GOCA (AFP graphics object)
– IOCA (AFP image object)
