Product Description
With OverView AFP Designer for AS400/iSeries, it’s easy to build complex document form print applications. You can design form layouts from building blocks like images and electronic forms, automatically retrieve current application data or spooled files from iSeries, design the final layout by combining data, forms, and images, then upload all components to iSeries to be put into production. The traditional iSeries Data Description Specifications (DDS) interface is not needed, which has two major advantages: First, it is a fully graphical design environment, whereas DDS is a programming interface. Second, it is application independent. You do not have to modify the existing application code to redesign your application output.
The AFP Designer is fully compatible to the IBM Advanced Function Printing standard (AFP) using FORMDEF and PAGEDEF and enables therefore the usage of the developed applications on any operating system and printer platform. This guarantees unlimited application growth and printer independence for all your print and document form applications using Advanced Function Printing/Intelligent Printer Data Stream (AFP/IPDS) to match with industrialstrength printing.
AFP resources like fonts and logos are directly used.Document forms are truly WYSIWYG designed in all resolutions 240/300/600.Edit multiple form building blocks on a single page.
The product package includes Image Editor for editing and generation of AFP page segments (e.g. logos and signatures) and to convert TIFF images into AFP image formats like IOCA.
