CME POSITION

Specifies the initial character position at which to begin to apply
the CME in the print line.

Syntax

[ac:] CME POSITION = n

Options

Default

1

CME command: points to note

The CME LINE and POSITION parameters are order
dependent; that is, LINE must always precede POSITION.

Data lines: The position of the line is altered to
accommodate the line with a larger font.

Multiple copies: If a multicopy report is aborted before all the
pages are processed, one copy is printed if the CMEs are
copy sensitive. Otherwise, all copies of the setup pages are
printed.

CMEs are not applied if OVERPRINT=MERGE and
FONTINDEX are both specified.

If an indefinite range is specified (for example, 10 –), CMEs
are applied only up until the last print line for the page.
If a definite range is specified (such as 10, 15), CMEs are
applied regardless of whether or not variable data appears on
those lines.

Multiple lines and columns: You may specify multiple lines
and multiple columns for each line.
– Multiple line specifications must be given in ascending

(top to bottom of page) order.

– Multiple column specifications for a line range must be

given in ascending (left to right) order.
