Restrictions
This section summarizes graphic restrictions, some of which have
been mentioned elsewhere in this document. These restrictions are
grouped according to whether they affect graphic features.
Note: The restrictions which follow are applicable without
Interpress.
Graphic feature restrictions
Note the following graphic feature restrictions:
•
Tape formats supported by interleaved graphic processing are
restricted to LPS compatible fixed or variable record structures,
that is, RECORD STRUCTURE = F, FB, V, or VB only.
Undefined length record structures, such as types U and UB,
are not supported. Packed data formats are not supported.
•
The maximum number of graphics that may be imaged on one
physical page is 16. This includes graphics associated with
forms.
• Graphic images may be overlapped on a page with each other
and with text.
•
There is no allowance or “tolerance” available for the paper size
in a JDE for a graphic to be off the page.
• No online banner page (neither header nor trailer) may include
graphic references.
•
A JDE which is selected through the DJDE option JDE= or
JDL= may not specify GRAPHICS=NO if the current report has
already processed at least one graphic.
•
In online batch mode, PCC commands are ignored beginning
with the BATCH=START DJDE until the BATCH=END DJDE.
• Graphics processing is not copy sensitive. A copy-sensitive
form may not reference graphics.
• If RPAGE is used to move a logical page from one physical
page to another, graphic references are handled as follows:
Graphic references encountered after the record which satisfied
the RPAGE statement are imaged on the physical page to
which the logical page is moved. Any other image references
are applied to the physical page being formed at the time the
RPAGE statement was satisfied. For example, if RPAGE
WHEN=TOP is specified, it is possible for a graphic to appear
on physical page n even though text which may have preceded
its reference in the input data stream appears on physical page
n+1.
Use caution when using RPAGE with page interleaved
graphics.
• A document-interleaved graphic replaces an existing graphic
with the same name. This is true even if the existing graphic is
used in a report which is being printed.
•
Forms are not supported for batch mode processing.
