RE: PDF Limitations?

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

The biggest spool file on our production system right now is a 3,629 page 
joblog.  And, it just happens to be a joblog from one of our Infoprint 
Server writers.  I'll shoot that one on to you.
On our development system I do have a 107,109 page simple spool file if 
you need a bigger test.

RE: PDF Limitations?










I guess I should have read the fine print.  I believe that they both have
an intermediate step that converts the spool file to a .tiff image.  I
wonder if that's due to overlays or other characteristics of AFPDS spool
files.  Maybe that's why the conversion programs that I've seen so far 
tend
to differentiate between SCS and AFPDS.  I'm trying the CVTSPLSTMF from
MMAIL right now and it's been chugging away for a few minutes.

What about Infoprint Server?  Does anybody know if it has a limit on AFPDS
printer files?

I dunno about AFPTOOl, but CVTSPLFPDF says it supports up to 2 pages...
