What utilities do you use to convert from Documaker FP to Documaker (AFP)?

Here are the AFP utilities you could use in such a conversion:

Utility

Description

MRG2FAP

Converts a Documerge AFP print stream or Documerge AFP EDL member to a FAP file. When converting Documerge EDL members, field tags are automatically converted to variable fields in the FAP file. Use this utility instead of the OVL2FAP utility for converting Documerge AFP EDL members.

OVL2FAP

Converts an AFP overlay into a FAP file.

FAP2OVL

Converts a FAP file into an AFP overlay.

AFP2PCL

Converts an AFP character set file into a PCL font.

PCL2AFP

Converts a PCL font into an AFP character set file.

PSEG2LOG

Converts an AFP page segment file into a logo file.

LOG2PSEG

Converts a logo file into an AFP page segment.

VB2AFP

Converts an AFP file written in Documerge variable block format to an AFP file written in native AFP format. Most of our AFP utilities expect the AFP file (page segments, overlays, and so on.) to be written in native AFP format.

AFP2VB

Converts an AFP file that is written in native AFP format to an AFP file written in Documerge variable block format (probably won't be needed).

AFPCOPY

Converts an AFP print stream from cut-sheet to continuous-form. Whether you need this depends on the AFP printer you are using.

AFPDUMP

Converts an AFP print stream (or any AFP file) to a text file which contains a list of the AFP commands used.

AFPCF

Creates AFP coded font files.

AFPFMDEF

Creates an AFP form definition resource file.
