SIMPLE3 – add copies, barcode, watermark |
Top Previous Next |
|
This rule set adds copy handling, a watermark, and a barcode. To produce this sample, use this command:
uf101c –i sample1.txt –f simple.rul –r simple3 –p pdf –o client:simple3.pdf
A title header prefixes all rule sets, which is just a unique name enclosed in brackets. [simple3] # to use this rule set, you need to FORCE the rule set with the -r option # or remark (#) out the detect command in the rule sets above. # # This rule set takes the rule set above and improves it by adding # copies, watermark, and a barcode.
dsn_sample "sample1.txt" detect 61,5,"~../../.. ......." # invoice date and # detect 9,11,"~......" # customer code detect 10,21,"~../../.. ......" # ord date and cust code
cols 80 # max output columns rows 66 # max output rows
This rule set produces two copies of each page, with each copy sequentially produced as each page is read from the data stream. The pcopies command indicates this page-oriented copy production. There is also a copies command, which produces job-oriented copies for laser jobs. Note that PDF output always is produced as page-oriented copies, whether copies or pcopies is used.

The barcode command can be used to add barcodes in many symbologies. It is similar to other commands, in that you provide a column, row, and value. In addition, you specify a symbology (400 is Code 3 of 9), a point size or pixel height (14.0, being a decimal rather than integer value, is treated as point size), and a bar spacing value in pixels. Like most commands, you can use expressions in the value element of the command. In this example, the data stream data from column 9, row 11, for 6 characters is used on each page, using the get() function within an expression.
text 2,58,"Customer code as 3 of 9 barcode",univers,italic,10 barcode 2,58.67,{get(9,11,6)},400,14.0,4
The following lines produce different output for each of the two copies. Copy 1 is labeled with a text command to say it is the "Customer Copy", while copy 2 is labeled as "Accounting Copy". Any commands outside of 'if copy' blocks are applied to all copies.
