PDL principles and procedures
The Xerox LCDS Print Description Language (PDL) is a set of
commands you give to the printing system to define properties
such as the appearance, output destination, and paper feed
source for your LCDS print job.
You can use LCDS PDL to do all of the following in your print
jobs:
•
Change and mix font types on a page to page, line to line, or
character to character basis. This allows you to customize
printed output for specific needs; for example, emphasizing
important headings by changing font styles and sizes.
•
Change text orientation and positioning on a page to page
basis. This allows you to print characters along the width or
length of the page with equal ease. The printing system can
switch instantly, at a page boundary, between portrait (tall
and narrow) and landscape (wide) page formats, combining
the two styles within a single report.
•
Print a number of previously separate logical pages on the
same physical page of a document.
•
Modify documents on a page to page basis by using copy
modification entries (CMEs) to replace selected portions of
text with other data, change fonts, or label copies as
“confidential.”
•
Merge variable print data with forms stored on the system
disk. This feature eliminates the need for forms overlays and
most preprinted forms, as well as assuring perfect
registration.
•
Print two different forms back to back (duplex) on one sheet
of paper, thereby reducing paper costs. Additionally, this
option offers potential savings in inventory, filing, storage,
and mailing costs for computer generated material.
•
Feed paper either short edge first or long edge first to
accommodate a variety of paper sizes.
