Multi-up printing
•
Page width — Identifies a three-character field that represents the
page width attribute in positions-per-line.
For Indirect processing, XDPE/400 searches the XDPEFLR/XESMUP
subfolder for a multi-up ASCII XES packet based on these attributes. For
example, XDPE/400 would search for a multi-up packet named P2132
based on these attributes:
Page rotation0 degrees
Pages per side2
Page width132 positions-per-line
If the packet is not present, XDPE/400 uses XDPEFLR/
XESMUP/P2XEROX as the default.
Multi-up packet format
The format of the multi-up packet is outlined below and must be adhered
to when developing additional multi-up packets. The format of an XES
multi-up packet is:
FONT
MARGIN
Page 1 Absolute position
Page 1 Relative position
Page 2 Absolute position
Page 2 Relative position
Page 3 Absolute position
Page 3 Relative position
Etc...
Each command must be on its own line and in the sequence shown.
Absolute and relative position commands must be given for each logical
page that will be printed on the physical page. End each line with an ASCII
carriage return and an ASCII line feed. XDPE/400 inserts the escape
character for each command line.
