CallPPD (procedure)

Calls a section of the PostScript Printer Description (PPD) file and executes it on the printer. Use this to set printer options such

as the input tray or duplexing options. The tokens and subtokens you use as arguments with this function must be defined in

the PPD file associated with your document or page in the document’s or page’s Basic Attributes. PlanetPress searches the PPD

file for the token-subtoken combination and then prompts the printer to execute the corresponding code.

Syntax

callppd( token, subtoken )

Arguments

token

This is the string to search for in the PPD file (for example, Duplex).

subtoken

This is string to search for that is a setting for the token (for example, None).

Example

if((&Condition1) or (&Condition2))

callppd("Tray", "2")

elseif()

if((&Condition3) or (&Condition4))

callppd("Tray", "3")
