For… EndFor (procedure)
This command structure allows a series of nested commands to be repeated a specified number of times.
Each for statement must have a corresponding endfor statement in order for PlanetPress Talk to know
which commands to include in the loop. Note that you cannot increment the counter for a for() loop, inside
the loop.
Note: If you open a document created a with a version of PlanetPress Design earlier than 5.2.0, and if that
document includes a for() loop with an increment greater than 1, you will notice that the loop is executed
one less time than with your older version software both in PlanetPress Design itself and when you use the
Optimized PostScript Stream option. The behavior on printers (using the Printer Centric option), on the
other hand, remains unchanged.
