ASSIGN

This parameter specifies an assignment of a VFU channel number to
a page line number or set of line numbers. It is possible to have
multiple ASSIGN parameters within a DJDE. They take effect at the
next record following a DJDE END parameter. DJDE assignments
affect only those channel assignments specified. Other assignments
remain the same. The ASSIGN parameters are the same as for the
VFU command ASSIGN parameter described in the chapter "Print
format commands."

BATCH

This parameter is supported for online batch mode jobs only. It
permits normal processing of online banner pages for batch mode
jobs by delimiting the batch mode graphic data. It must be used
precisely to mark the beginning and ending of online batch mode
data. The first graphic (or IMAGE DJDE) must be preceded
immediately by a BATCH=START DJDE, and the last graphic must
be followed immediately by a BATCH=END DJDE. This parameter,
when specified, must be the only parameter in the DJDE packet.
