The paper upon which a form is printed is the "physical page."
The default paper size used on an LPS is defined during system
generation (sysgen). The following paper sizes may be specified:
•
8.5 by 11 inches (USLETTER)
•
8.5 by 14 inches (USLEGAL)
•
8.27 by 11.69 inches (A4)
•
8.0 by 10.02 inches (203 by 254 mm)
•
8.0 by 10.5 inches (203 by 266 mm)
•
8.0 by 13.0 inches (203 by 330 mm)
•
8.27 by 10.63 inches (210 by 270 mm)
•
8.27 by 13.0 inches (210 by 330 mm)
•
8.37 by 10.78 inches (212 by 273 mm)
•
8.46 by 10.83 inches (214 by 275 mm)
•
8.46 by 12.40 inches (214 by 314 mm)
•
8.46 by 14.02 inches (214 by 356 mm)
•
8.50 by 10.75 inches (215 by 273 mm)
•
8.50 by 13.0 inches (215 by 330 mm)
The PAPER command may be used to identify the paper size. If it
is not present, the sysgen value is assumed.
When variable data is to be merged with a form, the paper size
for both must match and the correct size paper must be loaded.
The maximum area in which graphics and text can be imaged is
called the "system page."
To accommodate edgemarking, which is the placement of marks
along the edge of the physical page, the system page must be
larger than the physical page. Edgemarking capability is limited
because the system page boundaries correspond to the physical
page on at least two edges for all paper sizes.
The area chosen for printing is called the "virtual page" and may
or may not be as large as the system page. If you do not define
its dimensions explicitly, the virtual page dimensions are, by
default, the same as the sysgen-specified paper size or as the
PAPER command paper size.
If you explicitly define virtual page size (using the
LANDSCAPE/PORTRAIT command PAGE SIZE parameter), the
defined area is centered relative to the physical page dimensions.
The virtual page is assigned a landscape orientation by default, or
you can specify an orientation either with the
LANDSCAPE/PORTRAIT command or by using the FMTn option of
the GRID command.
The upper left corner of the virtual page is called the "virtual
page origin" (Figure 2-5). The virtual page origin is also used to
establish a form origin.
