RE: Query - RLU

Hi Tommy,

 

I have tried saving the printer file with *AFPDS and *IPDS but got the
same effect.

Is there any thing else that is needed ?

 

Thanks & Regards,

Amit

oops...also the font attributes will NOT likely works on a SCS printer

file...I believe the printer file has to be *IPDS or *AFPDS for font

changes to work properly (could be faulty memory though LOL)

 

Thanks,

Tommy Holden

first off....

 

in order for the overrides to take effect they have to be executed prior

to the printer file open....

 

without USROPN on the F spec the printer file is opened on calling the

program not after.

 

The way you have this coded the overrides will do nothing...on any

machine.  Most likely you have executed the override interactively on

your session prior to the call which would give that appearance.

 

For what the code appears to be doing you just simply can't do with

overrides due to the printer file having to be closed then reopened.

 

If you inserted the opens & closes necessary for the overrides to work

you will have multiple spooled files, not a single spooled file with

multiple font sizes.

 

Best bet is since this is an external printer file you should manipulate

the font sizes IN the printer file.  Look up the proper keywords etc in

the DDS manual....

 

Thanks,

Tommy Holden

Hello,

 

 

 

Can any one help me out in changing the font size in RLU ?

 

I have tried almost all the options available with a constant ie. (

HIGHLIGHT : CHRSIZ : CPI ) but nothing worked out.

 

 

 

Then I tried changing the CPI at Runtime by overriding the CPI of

printer file once for Bold & Bigger Font Size &

 

Again for Normal font and it worked in my Machine ( V5R3 ) But the same

code is not working in one of my colleagues Machine

 

 ( V5R3 ). Can any one tell me what can be the reason that Its running

on one and not on the other.

 

 

 

The code is mentioned below :

 

 

 

FABCPRN    O    E             PRINTER                              

 

D Cmd             S            100    DIM(4) CTDATA PERRCD(1)      

 

                                                                   

 

C                   Z-ADD     80            lung             15 5  

 

C                   CALL      'QCMDEXC'

C                   PARM                    Lung                   

 

C                   WRITE     RCD001                               

 

 

 

C                   Z-ADD     80            lung                   

 

C                   CALL      'QCMDEXC'

C                   CALL      'QCMDEXC'                 

 

C                   PARM                    Cmd(3)      

 

C                   PARM                    Lung        

 

C                   WRITE     RCD001                    

 

 

 

C                   EVAL      *INLR = '1'
