OK I will try a program-to-system field both library and page segment but not too optimistic!

I am not using ANY printer. I am not printing anything out.

I am sending the spool file as an email to Outlook and viewing it in MS outlook to see the signatures.

Dan's original example showed a program-to-system field for both library
and page segment...

Try it that way and see what happens...

From the manual, what you're trying to do should work...but... :)

Also, did you look at the writer job logs and/or the PDJ job of the same
name if using an actual AFPDS printer?

Speaking of which, are you using an actual AFPDS printer? Or are you using
an ASCII printer? If the latter, I'd be willing to bet the bug is in the
HPT code. Do you happen to have an actual AFPDS printer to try it on?

In my case each *pagseg object is a single signature image.



First crazy, naive idea: Can you print each separately?

Not crazy - that is what I did. So I ended up with two emails. A spool
file containing a *pagseg is not displayable on green-screen, so I email
them to myself.

Email #1:

*pagseg image from OLDlib

SIG001 John Doe

SIG002 Sally Smith


Email #2:

*pagseg image from NEWlib

SIG001 John Doe

SIG002 Sally Jones


Visually comparing the above two reports, it was determined that SIG002
was re-created with a different image at some time in the past.

I wanted to print a report showing BOTH signatures on one line, just
curious if it could be done.



Desired combined email report:

*pagseg image from OLDlib image from NEWlib

SIG001 John Doe John Doe

SIG002 Sally Smith Sally Jones



I don't think that the desired combined report is possible as the output
writer seems to "find" the *pagseg from a liblist and NOT from the DDS
keyword.

BTW I hard-coded the lib name - it was NOT a program variable.




R PFPAGESEG1 PAGSEG(OLDLIB/&PFPAGESEG1 +
&PF_VPOS_S1 3)
PFPAGESEG1 8 P
PF_VPOS_S1 5S 3P

R PFPAGESEG2 PAGSEG(NEWLIB/&PFPAGESEG2 +
&PF_VPOS_S2 6)
PFPAGESEG2 8 P
PF_VPOS_S2 5S 3P

Two thoughts. I should warn you I have no idea what a *PAGSEG object
even is, but the way you're talking about them makes them sound like
some kind of image, which you can sort of embed or link in a printer
file.

First crazy, naive idea: Can you print each separately? You said
you'd like one on the left and the corresponding one on the right, but
are having trouble using multiple libraries "in one pass". So how
about using two passes? If you can physically print out each
library's *PAGSEG on its own, then could you just put the pieces of
paper they printed out on next to each other? Yeah, with 500 objects
(or pairs of objects), that would potentially be lots of paper, but
other than being wasteful and low-tech, it would work, no?

Second crazy, more technical idea: Is there absolutely no way to
compare the objects byte-for-byte? If not directly, then perhaps
after some kind of conversion, like saving to a save file or dumping
to an IFS stream file? If not on the i5/OS side (apologies if I'm
getting the terminology wrong) then perhaps in Qshell or PASE?
