PDL principles and procedures
1-48 Using LCDS Print Description Language
System defaults can be used for all other specifications,
although typically each application has its own specific
characteristics.
• Use tab spacing to create columns for the command
identifiers, commands, and parameters in your JSLs. While
not required by the system, this organization makes it much
easier to identify command sets, their commands, and the
parameters of each command quickly, reducing the chance
of error.
The JSL in the following figure is set up in column format with
tabs. Generally, only the JDL name, identifiers, and the END
command begin in the first column of the JSL. Other
commands are indented.
