Re: AFPDS Page Segment Positioning

One possible answer is that your printer will NOT allow you
to print that close to the edge of the paper.

Setup up a dummy print file and do experiments on left and
right and up and down with something like a solid line.

With a few examples you should get a good idea of how close
you can get to the edge.


I would turn COR off....

It is moving your data around, use your own rotation
and cpi size.

Hi All,
Having a problem positioning the page segment on an *AFPDS print
file. I want the logo to print in the upper right hand corner of the
report. This is an 8.5 x 11 letter that prints portrait. Instead of the
logo appearing .1" down and 6" across, it prints roughly 6" down and 6"
across. As if the first line is 6" down. The only way I've found to get
the logo at the top of the page is to set it at 0, 0, but then it comes
out in the upper left hand corner. I used the FRONTMGN keyword on the
print file create because the manual said that the margin is the
starting point for whatever is specified in the PAGSEG. I wasn't sure
what it defaulted to so .1 seemed ok.

The page segment print file DDS:
A PAGSEG(R57110I 0.1 6.0 (*SIZE
10 5))
The print file created as:
CRTPRTF LPI(8) CPI(15) FRONTMGN(.1 .1) OVRFLW(72) PAGRTT(*COR) FILE(GBCMODS/R57845) DEVTYPE(*AFPDS) PAGESIZE(88 127 *N )

Any hints appreciated.
Thanks...
