Commands

4–40

FL

The optional forms length parameter to specify the

maximum length of the form. (Form length cannot

exceed the physical length of the page. Refer to

Appendix C). Specify the form length in one of three

ways:

a.

Enter 0 to define a form of unspecified length.

The form will end after the longest element; that

is, the form length is automatically controlled to

contain all elements without extra length beyond

the longest element. This can be used to

eliminate wasted paper after producing short

forms.

b. Enter a value for the form length ranging from 1

to 65,535 to specify the forms length in dot

rows. (12 dot rows per line = 6 lpi spacing; 9 dot

rows per line = 8 lpi spacing.)

NOTE: Dot row range for setting the forms length depends on the forms

length configuration. Refer to page 4–64 for information on how to

configure the forms length.

When the host form length configuration option is enabled, the form

length and width values defined in this command, set the physical

length and width page size.

c.

To specify the default forms length of 792 dot

rows (11 inches at 6 lpi), do not enter a value in

the form length parameter.

DISK

Optional parameter to store the form on the IGP/PGL

external memory module. Enter DISK.

Example

The following command creates a form named ORDER with the default

forms length:

(cc)CREATE;ORDER
