Pdl Command And Djde Options For Graphics - Xerox 721P85530 Description

USING GRAPHICS

PDL command and DJDE options for graphics

9-8
Several PDL commands are available for graphic handling. These
include four job descriptor entry (JDE) OUTPUT commands and six
dynamic job descriptor entries (DJDEs).
Tables 9-1 and 9-2 summarize these commands.
The DJDEs are record oriented because they take effect
immediately. For example, the ALTER, CANCEL, and IMAGE
commands may appear anywhere on the page and are applied to the
page on which they occur. The GRAPHIC, BATCH, and SAVE DJDE
commands also take effect immediately.
Page-oriented DJDEs applied to the next page must not precede
page interleaved graphics to be applied to the current page.
