VMS Help RUNOFF, file, Qualifiers, /FORM_SIZE *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
/FORM_SIZE=n Specifies the maximum number of lines per page including running heads and running feet. Defaults to /FORM_SIZE=66, which is standard for 11-inch paper. For laser printers, set the number of lines as follows: Paper Size Lines Mode 8.05 69 Landscape 8.28 71 Landscape (LN01E default) 8.51 73 Landscape (LN01, LN03 default) 11.00 66 Portrait (LN01, LN03 default) 11.66 70 Portrait (LN01E default) 12.33 74 Portrait 13.00 78 Portrait 14.00 84 Portrait When used with the /SIMULATE qualifier, the /FORM_SIZE qualifier controls the physical size of the page by putting out line feeds to match the number specified by the value n. When used with the /NOSIMULATE qualifier, the /FORM_SIZE=n qualifier causes DSR to suppress the form feed that DSR would normally insert at the line number specified by the value n. If the number of lines that DSR is going to put on any given page does not match the value n, a form-feed character is written into the output file. The default value for the value n is derived from the OpenVMS Run-Time Library (RTL) routine LIB$LP_LINES. This defaults to 66 unless the logical SYS$LP_LINES is defined, in which case the assigned value is used. To change the default value, specify a different value for the /FORM_SIZE=n qualifier.
