PAGEDEF parameter

Parameter type

Keyword, optional

Purpose

Use the PAGEDEF parameter to identify a library member that contains statements to tell the Print Services Facility™ (PSF) how to print the sysout data set on a page-mode printer (such as the Infoprint 4000). The data set may be sysout or a data set that is allocated directly to a printer. The statements can specify the following:

Logical page length and width.
Fonts.
Page segments.
Multiple page types or formats.
Lines within a page; for example:
- Line origin.
- Carriage controls.
- Spacing.
Multiple logical pages on a physical page.

The member must be in the library named in the cataloged procedure that was used to initialize PSF, or in a library specified in the USERLIB parameter.

Note: PAGEDEF applies only for data sets printed on a page-mode printer controlled by PSF.
