NDC comm CompuFax - Manual (Page 65)

4 1
Description: Specifies the amount of white space between the left edge of the document and the
bitmapped image in the outfile. This is measured in dots, or as specified by the / UNIT qualifier. If a negative
left margin is specified, this means the image will be shifted left instead of right and serves to crop the image.
Decimal fractions are allowed.
/ N OTIFY
Format:
/ NOTIFY
/ NONOTIFY (D)
Description: If / NOTIFY is specified a broadcast message will be sent to the user when the conversion
completes.
/ PAGE
Format:
/ PAGE= nnn
Description: Specifies the height (length) of the output image, which is measured in dots, or as specified
by the / UNIT qualifier. This value must be greater than zero. You can use this qualifier to reduce the height
of a scanned-in logo file, for example, that was previously padded with white space to fill the page.
/ PRIN T
Format:
/ PRINT
/ NOPRINT (D)
Description: Specifies whether the converted file is to be printed. To have the output file printed to scale,
it should have been set with / SCALE (see SET PRINTER and SHOW PRINTER.)
/ TOP_MARGIN
Format:
/ TOP_MARGIN= nnn
Description: Specifies the amount of white space between the top edge of the document and the
bitmapped image in the outfile. This is measured in dots, or as specified by the / UNIT qualifier. If a negative
top margin is specified, this means the image will be shifted up instead of down and serves to crop the image.
Decimal fractions are allowed.
/ UN IT
Format:
/ UNIT= DOTS (D)
/ UNIT= INCHES
/ UNIT= MM
/ UNIT= MILLIMETERS
/ UNIT= POINTS
Description: Specifies the unit of measure for left margin, top margin and page height. Fax resolution is
204 dots per inch horizontally and 196 dpi vertically. There are 25.4 millimeters per inch and 72 points per
inch. If the / UNIT qualifier is omitted, the unit defaults to dots.
Examples:
FAX> CON VERT N EWLOGO.PS / PAGE= 2.5 / UN IT= IN CH / PRIN T
This creates a bitmapped output file, called NEWLOGO.T4, from PostScript input file, NEWLOGO.PS,
with a height of two and a half inches and prints it out.
FAX> CON VERT IN .X / FORMAT= TEXT OUT.Y / FORMAT= PCL
This converts text file IN.X into a PCL file, OUT.Y, which may later be printed on an output device, capable
of printing PCL files. Note that the / FORMAT= TEXT qualifier was not necessary in this case, since the
program would have defaulted to text.
FAX> CON VERT PRO.T4 / LEFT= 72 / TOP= -36 / UN IT= POIN TS / PRIN T
This converts T4 file PRO.T4 into a later version of PRO.T4, which has an added left margin of 72 points (1
inch) and has half an inch cut off the top of the image. The result is then printed.
