AFP output can be treated similarly. The new Create AFP Data (CRTAFPDTA) command
provides three critical functions:
• Converts print formatted with page definitions to AFP.
• Creates a portable file by pulling in external fonts, page segments, and overlays.
• Inserts indexing to facilitate easy navigation when viewing the print file.
Another key focus of Infoprint Server is iSeries management of network output. Infoprint
Server provides transforms for PCL, Postscript, and PDF into AFP. Output generated in those
formats can be brought into the iSeries and effectively managed. The PostScript and PDF
transforms deliver full-function Level 3 capability.
The standard Web, e-business image formats are GIF, TIF, and JPEG. Infoprint Server
provides transforms (Windows-based) to convert those formats to an iSeries image (IOCA -
page segments).
