programname
Any valid input record exit program name. The exit
program name is case-sensitive.
If the input file is unformatted ASCII, but the fonts you are using
contain EBCDIC, not ASCII, code points (for example, you specify
chars=GT15), you can specify one of the following exit programs
supplied with PSF for AIX:
/usr/lpp/psf/bin/apka2e
Converts ASCII stream data to EBCDIC stream data.
/usr/lpp/psf/bin/asciinp
Converts unformatted ASCII data that contains carriage
returns and form feeds into a record format that contains
an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) carriage
control character. This exit encodes the ANSI carriage
control character in byte 0 of every record.
/usr/lpp/psf/bin/asciinpe
Converts unformatted ASCII data into a record format in
the same way as asciinp, and then converts the ASCII
stream data to EBCDIC stream data.
If your input file uses fonts that have ASCII code points (for example,
you specify chars=H292, or any of the fonts listed in Chapter 5, “IBM
AFP Fonts for ASCII Data” on page 77) you should
not
use the
apka2e or asciinpe exit programs. However, if your unformatted
ASCII file contains carriage returns and form feeds, you may want to
specify the following exit program supplied with PSF for AIX:
inputdd=
filename
Specifies the full path name of the input file that the acif command
will process. If you do not specify inputdd, the acif command uses
standard input.
| insertimm={yes | no}
| Specifies whether ACIF is to insert an IMM structured field before the
| first BPG structured field of every named page group. The default is
| NO. If INSERTIMM=YES, an IMM is inserted before the first BPG
| structured field in the named page group if no IMM was encountered
| within the named page group.
| mcf2ref={cpcs | cf}
| Specifies the way ACIF builds the Map Coded Font 2 (MCF2)
| structured field in the output file and the resobj file. The values are:
| cpcs ACIF uses the names of the code page and character set
| to build the MCF2 structured field. This is the default,
| which means that ACIF must open and read the contents
| of all coded fonts specified in MCFs in the input file or
| input resources.
| cf ACIF uses the name of the coded font to build the MCF2
| structured field. You will improve ACIF performance by
| specifying cf, because ACIF does not have to read the
| coded fonts from the font library.
