It is, however, possible to include or exclude Print sections when the output is generated,
depending on a value in the data. A Control Script can do this; see "Control Scripts" on
page417.
See "Generating output" on page948 to learn how to generate Print documents or Email.
Print
Connect supports a number of different types of print outputs. These include:
l AFP
l IPDS (spool file created by Connect, with printer control available through the "Print
Manager" on page985)
l PCL
l PDF
l PostScript (including the PPML, VIPP and VPS variants)
With the Designer you can create one or more Print templates and merge the template with a
data set to generate personal letters, invoices, policies, or any other type of letter you can think
of.
The Print context is the folder in the Designer that can contain one or more Print sections.
Print templates (also called Print sections), are part of the Print context. They are meant to be
printed directly to a printer or a printer stream/spool file, or to a PDF file (see "Generating Print
output" on page949).
The Print context can also be added to Email output as a PDF attachment; see "Generating
Email output" on page973.
When generating output from the Print context, each of the Print sections is added to the output
document, one after the other in sequence, for each record.
When a Print template is created or when a Print context is added to an existing template the
Print context folder is created along with other folders and files that are specific to a Print
context (see "Creating a Print template with a Wizard" on page124, "Adding a context" on
page117 and "Print context" on page130).
