Xerox XDPE/400 (also known as EOMS I-Services) Support & Software User Guide

Multi-up packets contain relevant font and positioning information. The 

XDPEFLR/XESMUP subdirectory contains a collection of multi-up 

packets supplied with XDPE/400. If you do not want to use one of these 

default packets, you can create your own using an editor on a personal 

computer (PC) or using IBM Source Entry Utility (SEU).
The format of the XES multi-up packet is outlined below and must be 

adhered to when developing multi-up packets. You can use the default 

packets provided by XDPE/400 as templates.

The XDPEFLR/XESMUP subfolder contains a set of XDPE/400-supplied 

multi-up packets to use with XDPE/400.
Table 25-3 shows the XES multi-up packets distributed with XDPE/400, 

and the method of command generation that can be used with them. The 

table also shows the maximum print data line length that can be used for 

each XES packet. Using a line length greater than the maximum line 

lengths specified in the table may result in print data overlapping between 

adjoining logical pages. Note that the line lengths include the first 

character as a control character.

The 1-, 2-, and 4-up packets can be used for both the Indirect (*INDIRECT 

and *COMBINED with *PACKET) and the Direct (*DIRECT and 

*COMBINED with *ATTRIB) methods, while the 8-, 16-, 24-, and 33-up 

packets can only be used with the Direct method.
