Record-oriented

Record-oriented DJDEs take effect immediately at the next record
following the last record of the set of DJDE records of which they are
a part; that is, after an END parameter, a compiled record-oriented
DJDE takes effect immediately.

The exception is the OVERPRINT DJDE, which takes effect at the
next logical page boundary if FONTINDEX has been invoked in a
JDE or DJDE. These DJDEs also may appear at report boundaries
to change all pages in a report (or report-ply).

Table 8-2 lists the record-oriented DJDEs.

Table 8-3 lists graphic DJDEs that are record-oriented.
