RE: Creating a page segment

Tom,
Usually if all the images were printed at one time it would be done once a
year.  The box is an 820 and most of the system could be used when this
particular task is necessary.

Ron:

How often is this to be done? How many processors does your system have and
how many are you willing to dedicate to generating images? How much memory
can you dedicate?

I think this isn't done on AS/400s mostly because of the relative expense of
CPU time and memory. It's certainly *possible* but it's bound to be
expensive. 60-100,000 images at a crack?
