GRAPHIC DJDE: points to note

• Other than name, none of the parameters may be used if the
specified graphic is document interleaved, nor should name
normally be used if the graphic is referenced by an IMAGE
DJDE.
If the graphic is page interleaved, the remaining parameters
may be used exactly as on the IMAGE DJDE (except for the
T parameter). If these parameters are specified in the
GRAPHIC DJDE and also on one or more IMAGE DJDEs
that reference the same graphic, the graphic is imaged on the
page once for each reference.
• Document and page interleaved graphics: If no textual
data has been previously encountered, the graphic specified
in the GRAPHIC DJDE is document interleaved and is copied
to a .IMG type disk file.
If textual data has been encountered previously, the graphic
is page interleaved and the previous print record should have
caused a page transition. If not, the occurrence of this DJDE
forces an immediate page termination, and the next print
record encountered is processed relative to TOF (Top of
Form) on the next physical page.
An interleaved graphic that immediately follows a header
banner page is treated as document interleaved. The header
banner page must be defined by a BANNER command. Skip
carriage control commands on a graphics sentinel DJDE are
ignored.
• Graphic file replacement and deletion: If an image file with
the specified name already exists in the "lcds" resources
directory, it is superseded by the new one. However, it is not
replaced immediately. If a new file will be retained beyond the
scope of the current report processing (as indicated by the
OUTPUT PURGE parameter or the SAVE DJDE), the new
file is stored in (and replaces existing files in) the "lcds"
resource folder when processing of the report is complete.
NOTE: The "lcds" folder can be accessed from either of the
following Unix directory paths:
/var/spool/XRXnps/resources/lcds/
or
/opt/XRXnps/resources/lcds/
