Re: ACS Spooled file download - Text vs PDF

If you have a user without ACS, you can still use STRCPYSCN (Start Copy Screen) - check the spelling, I usually get it inside out. You run this against their job, as I recall, and it saves the screens into some file member, IIRC. You don't get the underlines of the input fields, but the rest is there. Every time they move to a new screen, it is recorded - the result is modifiable with putting in row and column numbers, if you want, again, IIRC.

Even if the most they allow producing HTML or RTF level of text formatting then at least we have a way to get the image into color.

Mostly I want images for our testers to record their test activity for proof of success or failure.
I did learn about the archive part which I never knew of before so that may be an option but since most all of our users do not have ACS it might not be as useful as it may seem initially to review the tester activity.

My bad memory - from the viewer there is a right-click option - if you print it, you get a "text" version but with all the underlines and all nicely laid out - no colors, though.

Even printing to a PDF is the same.

One issue for me is, you can't print the whole set of screens, so far as I can see. But you CAN save the whole thing as text. It's not as nice, though, as printing individual screens.

Sorry for the confusion - lots of opportunities, however, for RFEs here.
I'll see about getting at it.

Vern,
I have been using ACS (I'm at 1.1.7.2) for quite a while and I have never seen "...then these can be either brought up as images or as text." By image are you referring to the view when it's in color verses just black and white or saved to an actual image format file? I attempted to see if history would be useful for end user documentation and testing results but it is never saved as an image or printed with color options.

Do you know have to make images of the history without another tool?

Hi Paul

ACS has a screen history - VERRRY cool - similar to the STRCPYSCN - this has an archive feature, as well. The user only has to take "Screen History" option on the View menu, then every time a command key is pressed or basically the screen changes, it is put into thumbnails below the session window.

And then these can be either brought up as images or as text.

There is also a Copy as Image option on the Edit menu in ACS - not in the older Client Access emulator.

Regards
Vern

Getting 'images' screen shots is almost as much fun as our operator printing out a joblog for me to review. ): I think he knows not to do that anymore!

Just barely. That's like losing your left arm isn't as bad as losing your
right (if you're right handed that is).

You're awesome for sending job logs as text or PDF. I normally get
them from customers as screen captures... *facepalm*
