The Create PDF Map (QPQCRTPM) API creates a PDF map.
The PDF map allows you to define mapping entries (using the Add PDF Map Entry (QPQAPME) API) for spooled files you want to be processed after they have been converted to PDF by PSF/400.
The PDF Map you are creating. The qualified PDF Map name has two parts. The first 10 characters contain the PDF Map name.
The second 10 characters contain the name of the library in which the PDF Map is located.
The following special values are allowed:
| *CURLIB | The job's current library is used to locate the PDF Map. If no library is specified as the current library for the job, the QGPL library is used. |
Specify the name of the library where you want to create the PDF Map.
The authority you give to users who do not have specific private or group authority to the PDF map. Once the PDF Map has been created, its public authority stays the same when it is moved to another library or restored from backup media.
The valid values for this parameter are:
| *ALL | The user can perform all authorized operations on the PDF map. |
| Authorization list name | The PDF map is secured by the specified authorization list, and its public authority is set to *AUTL. The specified authorization list must exist on the system when this API is issued. If the list does not exist, the create process fails, and an error message is returned to the application. |
| *CHANGE | The user has read, add, update, and delete authority for the PDF map and can read the object description. |
| *EXCLUDE | The user cannot access the PDF map in any way. |
| *LIBCRTAUT | The public authority for the PDF map is taken from the CRTAUT value for the target library when the object is created. If the CRTAUT value for the library changes later, that change does not affect PDF mapping objects already created. If the CRTAUT value contains an authorization list name and that authorization list secures an object, do not delete the list. If you do, the next time you call this API with the *LIBCRTAUT parameter, it will fail. |
| *USE | The user can read the object description and contents but cannot change the PDF map. |
