Using LCDS Print Description Language
• The maximum number of fonts that may be used in printing a
given page or a given job varies depending on a number of
factors. The number of fonts specified in the FONTS
parameter must be at least equal to the largest number of
fonts required to print any page within the job.
When the system is unable to receive an allocation of
dynamic memory, the job aborts. Particularly for input, the
limitations of dynamically allocated memory impose
additional constraints that effectively reduce the maximum
number of fonts that may be used to print a page. The
number of fonts specified in the FONTS parameter
determines the size of a dynamically allocated table where
information about the fonts is cached.
• An xdot is 1/600 unit of measurement. You can create, edit,
and compile a form specifying XDOTS on any Xerox laser
printing system (other than the DP EPS) with version 3 or
higher software. The 600 spi form does not print on the DP
EPS, which accept only 300 spi data.

Indicates that printing will be parallel to the long edge of paper (for
paper loaded with its long edge facing the feed direction). Print
lines on 11 by 17 inch or A3 paper are parallel to the short edge.
