Parameters
FSL is the only valid resource you can use.
FSL=DDname
and PDS member name is the member name of the PDS where
the FSL is stored. The DDname can be either a sequential or a
partition data set. When the DDname is sequential, the PDS
member name is not applicable.
Operands
LISt produces the full compiler listing. To specify no listing,
delete this operand.
VERsion=Other specifies the form version you want to compile.
2 produces a form suitable for the version 2 and version 3
printers (4050, 4090, 4135, 4650, 8790, 9790). HC produces a
form suitable for a Xerox highlight color LPS printer. X1 or XC
produces a form suitable for Xerox decentralized printers. The
default is 2.
Form versions are not significant unless you are creating a
highlight color form or an XES form. Version HC only prints on a
Xerox highlight color printer. You should use version HC for
compiling any form that you will use on a highlight color printer,
even if it is a black and white form. When you specify VERS=2
or VERs=10 and you have referenced color anywhere in the
form, VERSION is automatically set to HC. When you specify
VERs=X1 and you have referenced color anywhere in the form,
VERSION is automatically set to XC. Version XC only prints on a
Xerox full color decentralized printer.
OBJect specifies that the database stores the compiled form.
The default is not to store the compiled form in the database.
SPACING is used for fully justified text. It specifies the base gap
used in this formula to determine the interword gap:
interword gap = interword multiplier * base gap
If you include this operand for the COMPILE command, the base
gap is the EN space. The EN space is 1/2 the point size of the
first named font.
If you omit this operand, the base gap is the width of ASCII code
point X'20'. This code point is usually a "blank", and is always
derived from the first named font.
This operand is valid for fully justified text only.
The INTERWORD command specifies the interword multiplier in
the interword gap formula above. Table 5-1 illustrates how the
INTERWORD command and the SPACING operand work together
to determine the interword gap for fully justified text.
