When to Use Device User Source

Device user source contains customized device language statements. Use device user source when:

• You require a feature that is not supported by CA 2E; for example, you need the following functions of the Advanced Printer Function (APF):
  • Print logos
  • Special symbols
  • Large characters
  • Bar codes
  • Bar charts
  • Vertical and horizontal lines that can be used to form boxes
• You require a facility introduced in the current i OS release that has not yet been implemented in CA 2E; for example, HTML support.
• The way an existing feature is implemented is not suitable for your use; for example, change appearance of an indicator to blinking or reverse image.
• You need to insert special anchors to support your pre-processor.
