the

Xerox

input

to,

and

the

AFP

output

from

the

conversion

process.

You

can

also

specify

more

than

one

value

on

a

single

occurrence

of

the

-t

directive.

[-x

"

conversion_parameters"]

Specifies

conversion

parameters.

Any

parameters

that

you

specify

with

this

directive

override

the

same

parameters

if

you

specify

them

with

other

methods.

For

example,

if

you

specify

them

with

the

-x

option

of

the

pdxtx2afp

command

or

if

you

specify

them

with

the

other-transform-

options

attribute

in

the

InfoPrint

Manager

environment.

Do

not

use

this

directive

to

specify

parameters

such

as

xjdl

or

xjde

for

your

production

environment.

You

might

find

this

directive

useful

as

a

temporary

override

to

the

production

environment

for

testing

purposes.

For

more

information

about

conversion

parameters,

see

Appendix

A,

“Conversion

parameters

for

converting

Xerox

jobs,”

on

page

Trace

transform

directives

For

service

purposes,

a

technical

support

representative

might

ask

you

to

activate

a

trace.

The

technical

support

representative

instructs

you

to

use

this

format:

-x

xztrace=all1:all2

Use

this

only

at

the

direction

of

a

technical

support

representative.

The

technical

support

representative

will

provide

further

information

about

how

to

locate

the

trace

output

and

provide

it

to

service

for

analysis.

Activating

transform

directives

Several

methods

exist

for

activating

InfoPrint

XT

transform

directives.

InfoPrint

XT

checks

for

an

environment

variable

first

and

for

a

directives

file

second.

If

you

enter

the

pdxtx2afp

command

directly,

InfoPrint

XT

then

checks

for

the

-t

command

option.

If

you

use

InfoPrint

Manager

with

InfoPrint

XT,

InfoPrint

XT

checks

for

a

document

attribute

instead

of

the

command

option.

PDXTX2AFP_DIRECTIVES

environment

variable

You

can

add

the

environment

variable

as

a

system

variable

so

that

directives

are

active

for

any

user

account

that

runs

the

transform.

Restart

the

Windows

system

after

you

add

the

environment

variable.

These

are

examples

of

values

that

you

can

enter

in

the

Variable

value

field

of

the

Windows

System

Properties

interface:

-t

x2afp.out

-k1

-a1

%PDXTWORKDIR%\pdxtx2afp.directives

file

This

is

a

plain

text

file

that

contains

the

directives.

Each

directive

entry

is

specific

to

a

destination.

If

you

use

InfoPrint

Manager

with

InfoPrint

XT,

the

destination

is

the

name

of

an

InfoPrint

Manager

actual

destination.

Otherwise,

the

destination

is

the

destination

that

the

-p

option

of

the

pdxtx2afp

command

specifies.

You

can

also

use

*:

as

a

destination

so

that

the

associated

transform

directive

applies

to

all

job

destinations.

You

can

include

comments

and

blank

lines

in

the

directives

file.

Delimit

comments

with

a

number

sign,

#

.

These

are

examples

of

the

types

of

entries

that

you

can

make

in

the

transform

directives

file:

#-------------------------------------------------------#

#

For

all

destinations,

capture

the

InfoPrint

Manager

#

#

attributes

in

the

jobattr.ipm

file.
