1.6.1.3 Examples of tag usage
The following examples demonstrate the format of strings produced by individual
tags. Some examples also show how the tags may be used in combination to form a
template. The examples are based on these job details:
Page buffer name: 1. Uncalibrated Target: Default CMYK + spot colors target
Date: 12th of August, 2000
Exposure: 110
Compression: TIFF(Packbits) Encoding
Quality: Best
Note: When creating multiple copies of a file, the same page buffer provides tag infor-
mation. If a template contains dynamic tags (such as
<time>, where the value
changes each time a page buffer file is output), multiple copies of the file are created.
If the template contains just static tags (such as
<jobname>, where the job name
remains constant), a single output file is created because previous files are overwrit-
ten.
<colorant>
This tag includes the color space of the device in the file name string.
Tag Description
<dos>

system.
<mac>
Verifies that the file name is a legal file name for the Macintosh operat-
ing system.
<unix>

system.
