Views statement
The Views statement contains the color views for the document. A document can have only one Views statement,
which must appear at the top level in the order given in “MIF file layout” on page 52.
Syntax
View statement
For each color view, the View statement specifies which colors will be displayed, which will be displayed as cutouts,
and which will not be displayed at all. The
View statement must appear in a Views statement.
Syntax
Variables
All variable definitions for a document are contained in a VariableFormats statement. Both user-defined and
system-defined variables are defined by a
VariableFormat statement. A Variable statement that refers to the
variable name shows where the variable appears in text (see “ParaLine statement” on page 125).
VariableFormats and VariableFormat statements
The VariableFormats statement defines document variables to be used in document text flows. A MIF file can have
only one
VariableFormats statement, which must appear at the top level in the order given in “MIF file layout” on
page 52.
Each
VariableFormat statement supplies a variable name and its definition. The statement must appear in a
VariableFormats statement.
