some printers, and IO1 images cannot be printed on some printers. When

5. When 90, 180, or 270 is specified in the
Degree of rotation
prompt on the
Define PFD Specifications screen, the page segments defined in the PFD
definition do not rotate with the page layout.
Line
Nothing is printed for lines which have a greater width than length.
Box
Nothing is printed for boxes which have a line width specified which is greater than
either the box width or the box height.
Text in Box
Text in a box is formatted by using the character spacing parameter specified on
the box element. If the font size is different, formatting is incorrect.
For example:
Character spacing :
Horizontal........................ 1
Vertical.......................... 6
Font for text in a box
width ............................ .2 inches ( 5 CPI )
height ........................... .33 inches ( 3 CPI )
Text will be printed to the right of the correct position for center. The second and
subsequent lines will partly duplicate the preceding lines.
To avoid this situation, specify the character spacing value equal to that of the font.
Shading in Box
It sometimes takes a long time to print shaded boxes (especially with the IBM 4028
printer).
Graphics (GDF) Size
AFP Utilities for AS/400 has no limitations and restrictions for the graphics (GDF)
size, but printing a page which contains some large graphics (GDF) or too many
graphics may cause a printer storage excess error. In such cases, check the
printer storage size.
Text Font in Graphics (GDF)
When a graphics element contains text characters, the text is printed using the font
which is specified for the graphics element.
