If an input text file with a DSNAME or PATH filename extension equal to PDF, PDFL, HTML, or RTF is selected, the file is automatically formatted and converted into the specified data-stream as it is being written to disk. PDFL specifies that linearized PDF must be generated.
The formatting and paper size, orientation, and font style (family, pitch, style, and stroke weight) are controlled by the file's Form, Chars, channel skips, and maximum record length. The default line spacing is 6 LPI, allowing 43 lines per page in landscape and 60 lines per page in portrait. If the lines per page in the data file is higher, LPI and lines per page are automatically adjusted.
Both TCPDRIV option H - page length auto formatting, which is the default, and TCPDRIV option F - FCB-length based auto formatting, are supported.
If the RTF wrapper is used and the input file's form attribute matches FORM=A4*, the output is formatted to A4 paper size.
If the input file's form attribute matches FORM=LET*, the output is formatted to letter paper size.
Note: Separator pages are not supported for files created using CA Spool's Text Wrapping support. ESFU010X is not called for files of this type.
