CME command: points to note

•

The CME LINE and POSITION parameters are order
dependent; that is, LINE must always precede POSITION.

•

Data lines: The position of the line is altered to
accommodate the line with a larger font.

•

Multiple copies: If a multicopy report is aborted before all
the pages are processed, one copy is printed if the CMEs are
copy sensitive. Otherwise, all copies of the setup pages are
printed.

•

CMEs are not applied if OVERPRINT=MERGE and
FONTINDEX are both specified.

•

If an indefinite range is specified (for example, 10 –), CMEs
are applied only up until the last print line for the page.

If a definite range is specified (such as 10, 15), CMEs are
applied regardless of whether or not variable data appears on
those lines.

•

Multiple lines and columns: You may specify multiple lines
and multiple columns for each line.

–

Multiple line specifications must be given in ascending
(top to bottom of page) order.

–

Multiple column specifications for a line range must be
given in ascending (left to right) order.
