4Specifying input parameters
Input data is processed and temporarily written to disk for
subsequent printing under control of user-selected PDL commands.
The input processor decodes and formats input data from an offline
magnetic tape, a host-attached channel interface, or a remote
communication. The general functions of input processing are
described below.
The basic PDL commands available to control input processing are
BLOCK, CODE, PCC, RECORD, SEFFNT, TCODE, and VOLUME,
which are defined in this chapter. The chapter "Using logical
processing commands" defines commands enabling you to specify
logical functions that may be performed on either a record, block, or
page basis.
Table 4-1 summarizes the input PDL commands.
