Use this utility to compile a FAP file into a pre-complied Xerox Metacode overlay. This utility generates a Metacode print file from a FAP file.
FAP2METW /I /X /P /N /VF /SV /D /H /C /LB
Parameter |
Description |
/I |
Enter then name of the FAP file (you can use asterisks as wildcards). |
/X |
Enter the name of the font cross-reference (FXR) file. |
/P |
Enter the INI file PrtType to use, such as XER. |
/N |
Enter the font ID to use to print the name of section, such as 11006. |
/VF |
Add this parameter to sample print with variable fields. |
/SV |
Add this parameter to save the MET file for the GenPrint program. Keep in mind you cannot use this parameter if you have the ImageOpt INI option set to Yes for floating sections which contain inline graphic (LOG) files. |
/D |
(Optional) Enter SF for short bind front page duplex, enter SB for short bind back page duplex. |
/H |
Add this parameter to use HMI. |
/C |
Add this parameter to use color in the MET file. |
/LB |

This utility requires these files:
Depending on the option flags, the print file may be a print-ready file or a pre-complied file for use with the GenPrint program.
In addition to the FAP file name, you must also specify the name of the font cross-reference file (rel121.FXR) used by the FAP file. To print the file, you must install Xerox versions of the fonts used in the FAP file on the printer.
Note | The INI options for FAP2MET are in XEROXJDL control group in the FSISYS.INI file in version 8.0, and in PrtType:XXX control group in versions 8.5 and later. |
