FORMS DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE
PAPER
Identifies the paper size for which the form is designed. It is an
optional command that enables you to select a paper size that is
different than the sysgen-defined paper size.
Syntax PAPER SIZE IS value;
Parameter options value
USLETTER
8.5 by 11 inches/216 by 279 mm.
A4
8.27 by 11.69 inches/210 by 297 mm.
USLEGAL
8.5 by 14 inches/216 by 356 mm.
x unit BY y unit
Specifies nonstandard sizes. The x represents the virtual
page width and the y represents the virtual page height.
Units are optional and can be expressed in INCH or
INCHES, CM or CENTIMETERS, DOTS, or XDOTS. The
default is INCHES.
The x and y values must be positive numbers and may
contain two decimal places for all units except DOTS.
Default If a PAPER command is not present, and a predefined format is
not specified, the sysgen-defined paper size in effect at run time
is used as the paper size value.
Example nonstandard sizes PAPER SIZE IS 16.54 INCHES BY 11.69 INCHES;
Example standard sizes PAPER SIZE IS USLETTER;
Considerations USLETTER and USLEGAL cannot be abbreviated.
You can specify paper size in a Job Source Library (JSL). When
the JSL specifies PAPERSIZE using the keyword method, for
example, USLETTER, A4, or USLEGAL, the .FSL must also use the
same method. If the JSL specifies PAPERSIZE=8.5 by 14 and
your .FSL specifies PAPER SIZE IS USLEGAL, one of the following
error messages is displayed:
OS6670 Form paper size too small. Form will not be printed.
OS6680 Form paper size too large. Form will not be printed.
These errors appear only when you print the form. The
messages do not appear when you compile the form without
printing it.
Reference The PDL PAPERSIZE command is explained in more detail in your
Xerox 4050/4090/4450/4650 LPS Print Description Language (PDL)
Reference.
Due to edgemarking considerations, the form created by
specifying a paper size of USLEGAL is different from one
specifying 8.5 by 14 inches.
