CREATING A JOB SOURCE LIBRARY (JSL)XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS PDL REFERENCE 3-9Hints and tipsThe following tips may help you as you create your JSL:• The only required elements in a JSL are the following:— A JDL name, which is the name of the file created bycompiling the JSL— Job names— END; command at the end of the JSL.System defaults could be used for all other specifications,although typically each application has its own specificcharacteristics.• Use tab spacing to create columns for each element of the JSL:command identifiers, commands, and parameters. While notrequired by the system, this organization makes it much easierto identify command sets, their commands, and eachcommand’s parameters quickly. Here is a short example:• If you are not sure which specifications to select, try running ajob using the system defaults and then adjust the JSL to meetyour requirements. You can modify an existing JSL in the samemanner.• Keep the hierarchy of replacement, described in chapter 2,“Print description language (PDL) components and processes,”in mind. It is much easier to specify generic or globalcharacteristics at the system level, for example, than to call thesame specifications out over and over again for each job orcatalog.SMPLST:V1:T1:C1:CME1:JOB1:JOB2:JOB3:END;JDE;JDE;JDE;JDL;VFUVOLUMEBLOCKRECORDLINETABLECRITERIACMEOUTPUTOUTPUTBANNERASSIGN=(1,5), ASSIGN=(2,10),ASSIGN=(3,15), TOF=5,BOF=66;HOST=XEROX, LABEL=NONE,CODE=EBCDIC, PLABEL=NO;LENGTH=3990;LENGTH=133, STRUCTURE=FB;DATA=(1,132),PCCTYPE=XEROX,PCC=(0,NOTRAN), VFU=V1;CONSTANT=(132) ’*’;CONSTANT=(2,132,EQ,T1),LINENUM=(1,5);LINE=(9,-), POS=1, FONT=1;DUPLEX=YES,FORMS=BARS, MODIFY=CME1;FORMS=NONE,DUPLEX=NO, COPIES=2;TEST=C1,HCOUNT=1,TCOUNT=0;
