ipxmp
This program takes a output file from MediaPlanner and builds a Fip_SMGL file
suitable for IPSETTER to convert to PostScript and proof/print/send
The Magic number of each data file (the first 4 bytes) is checked. All
PostScript and PostScript with Binary Header files are left 'as is' and the
filename noted. All other types are compared against our table of images
defined with the 'image' parameter.
If the image is on that list and there is a conversion script to convert it to
EPS then that is run and the EPS file dropped into the 'raw file path' -
usually spool/epsf.
Any not in that list are stripped.
The program first goes and gets its parameter file :
tables/setup/MEDIAPLANNER
or tables/setup/MEDIAPLANNER.FIP for Windows 2K, Windows 7, Windows 8
If the -OWNER flag is on, the program looks for a parameter file
setup/MEDIAPLANNER-(OwnerCode). This ownercode is the XX-YYY from the
MediaPlanner file. There can be a default for each Publication called
MEDIAPLANNER-XX-DEF where XX is the forst part of the owner code and DEF starts
for DEFAULT.
Note all field numbers are from 1 onwards.
The format of this file is :
----------------------------
Often changed parameters are :
------------------------------
; comment line
datapath Main data path for the High Res data files
default is /home/ds/lithos/highres
map-drive Map a Windows drive letter to a Unix Path
default for all is the 'data-path'
map-drive:(drive letter) (spaces/tab) (UnixPath)
map-drive:K /home/ds/bigdisk/low-availability
or for sites which prefer to use UNC/hostname mappings like \bigserver
map-system Map a Windows systemname to a Unix Path
default for all is the 'data-path'
map-system:(hostname) (spaces/tab) (UnixPath)
map-system:ntsys /home/ds/bigdisk/low-availability
eg \EditservmediaplannerGraphics20060208FA560455975
map-system:editserv //n2wdevfip1/d$/fip
** NOTE - please use '/' not '' and please do NOT add a trailing '/',
or for sites which prefer to use UNC paths or hostname/SHARE mappings like
\bigservermyShare (or using Samba or NFSshare)
map-share Map a Windows host/share to a Unix Path
default for all is the 'data-path'
map-share:(hostname)/(share) (spaces/tab) (UnixPath)
map-share://nfssys/SambaAds /home/ds/bigdisk/low-availability
** NOTE that UNC path is ALWAYS stripped off - so if the data REALLY is on
the host, you need to specify it !
map-share://adsplanning/classified //adsplanning/classified
** NOTE if there are several shares on a system AND you need to specifiy that
host WITHOUT a share as well, the map-system should be specified last ie
map-share:Ads/mpGRAPH /data1/adsdata/graphs
map-share:Ads/mpTEXT /data1/adsdata/text
map-system:Ads /data/adsdata
** NOTE that later model Windows (7, 2008 etc) have much stricter
authentication. If you are using UNC paths or data on a remote drive you will
ALWAYS need to start the Fip service (in Services) with a Domain logon which
has the right permissions to read the files off the remote system.
map-untracked: Path for the High Res data files for any untracked ads
map-dash-untracked: Path for the data files for any untracked ads that have a
dash or hyphen in the name.
map-untracked-by-adtype: (Ad type letter) (Path)
use this for finding elements that are organised by ad type in different
folders :
eg map-untracked-by-adtype:F /ad4pag/%furniture
map-untracked-by-adtype:S /ad4pag/%headers
if there is no map-untracked-by-adtype for that particular adtype, then the
plain 'map-untracked' is used (if specified)
check-all-untracked-maps: Use this to check in each map-untracked folder in
case the element has been misplaced.
default: no - just check that one folder.
map-missing: Alternate Path for the High Res data files for any missing ads
default: none
image:(name) magic:(magic) script:(script)
See below for handling non-epsf images
adlist-filename: Path and filename of a file containing a list of ads used
eg adlist-filename: /fip/spool/2syb/SN.$z
adlist-fiphdr: (FipSeq)
Add a FipHdr to the Adlist - and supplement it with this as extra
eg adlist-fiphdr:#XX:from SPn
adlist-format: Format in FipSeq of each line for each ad in the adlist file
eg adlist-format: ADORA|UPDATE_ADLIST|$d-$m-$e$y
$h:$n:$b|PP|PS|ZD-ZM-ZZ|PN|PFn
default is $d-$m-$e$y $h:$n:$b PP PS ZD-ZM-ZZ PN PFn
Please remember to ad a NL at the end of the line with n
adlist-banner: Format for some FipSmgl defining the job banner (used for
Proofing only)
adlist-file-format: same as adlist-format:
adlist-rule-format: Format for RULES in the adlist
adlist-area-format: Format for PAGEAREAS in the adlist
adlist-miss-format: Format for Missing files the adlist
adlist-meta-format: Format for MetaData in the adlist
adlist-job-format: Format for Job in the adlist - gets called when a JOB line
appears
adlist-folio-format: Format for defining the FipSmgl Folio file (in
customer/folio) in the adlist
default - all ignored
adlist-insert-after-folio: (Same as insert-after-folio) default - ignored
missing-ad-filename: Path and filename of a file containing a list of ads not
found
eg missing-ad-filename:/fip/data/missings/$e$y$i$d.PP.miss
This will append to a file containing all the missing ads
If you want individual file, it is usually a goo idea to add FipSeq like
$z.$v somewhere to make the name unique
eg missing-ad-filename:/fip/spool/getads/FTP.PP.SN.$u.$z.$v.fip
missing-ad-format: Format in FipSeq of each line for each ad in the missing-ad
file
eg missing-ad-format: $d-$m-$e$y $h:$n:$b|PP|PS|ZD-ZM-ZZ|PN|PFn
default is
PP|PS|ZZZMZG|PN|QI/SX|PF|PU|PY|$u|$e$y$i$d.$h$n$bn"
pub|section|pubdate|pageno|input path/filename|missing Ad
path/filename|reason|comment|unixtime|datetime NL
Please remember to ad a NL at the end of the line with n
missing-ad-header: Format in FipSeq of a header line before any ads in the
missing-ad file
default is PP|PS|ZZZMZG|PN|!!ZAP!!|\$un
missing-ad-trailer: Format in FipSeq of a trailer line after all ads in the
missing-ad file
This is ONLY output if there have been any missing ads
default is none
list-scale-errors: Each wrongly scaled ad to be logged in the missing-ad file
with PU contain "Scale Error"
left-folio-x: x posn of 0,0 point of Left folio
left-folio-y: y posn of 0,0 point of Left folio
right-folio-x: x posn of 0,0 point of Right folio
right-folio-y: y posn of 0,0 point of Right folio
fudge-folio-y: y posn of 0,0 point of both folios - fudged a bit more !
roman-numerals: Upper|lower case default is UPPER
force-roman-numerals: yes/no
Normally Roman numerals are created by MP and are flagged by the ROMAN key in
the FOLIO line and the 2 page numbers (orig in FipHdr PV and the alt in PQ)
Use 'force-roman-numerals:yes' to replace anything from MediaPlanner and use
the Fip routines to grenerate new PV and PQ from whatever the Folio Page Number
is.
output-single-pages: Output each page as a separate file rather than one file
for all pages.
ignore-ad-types: List of single letter ad-types that should be totally ignored
!
Normal MediaPlanner ad types are :
D - Display
L - Lineage
S - Section Header
H - Header
F - Filler
P - AdSite
X - eXtras such as WaterMarks
So use with care ! Usually AdSites are NOT required - but are also rarely
sent
replace-colour-ads: Stub file to replace a Colour Ad
This file name will be force uppercase and reside in tables/form/postscript
opi-ad-types: List of single letter ad-types that will need to be OPIed rather
than the whole EPS included by 'ipsetter'.
Normal MediaPlanner ad types are :
D - Display
L - Lineage
S - Section Header
H - Header
F - Filler
P - AdSite
X - eXtras such as WaterMarks
or * - all types
These force 'ipsetter' to call a stub file for the OPI in form/postscript
called 'MP-OPI-STUB-?' where ? is the (uppercase) ad type.
resolve-opi-script: (script with parameters in FipSeq)
Run this script for all OPI types (as flagged with the opi-ad-type)
and include any hires in the output file and do NOT use the OPI
call (nor use the MP-OPI-STUB file as described above)
default-route: name of default route ie FipHdr field PR
default-pubcode: ie FipHdr field PP
default-section: ie FipHdr field PS
default-folio:YES/NO
default-furniture:YES/NO
Folio or furniture is ON or OFF unless overwritten by
'route-add/no-folios/furniture'.
NOTE - These defaultS MUST be defined at the top of the parameter file if
used (or they will override any prestated parameters)
dcs-plates: DCS Colour plates in order of output
dcs-plates: Black%My_Green
Use the '%' as a separator for the different Plate names.
This will override the 'eps-comments..' parameters.
NOTE - Black, if specified, should be the FIRST plate.
Just to confuse, 'ipsetter' will output the plates in REVERSE
order so that the first plate, which should be Black, will be
the LAST plate output. This is so that any subsequent process
can wait for the Black plate before processing.
default-dcs-plate: Black
If there is no colour(s) in the Ps Header of the ad, use this colour
default is Black
check-dcs-plates:
If present, this option forces a check of the PostScript
Header of each file to check how many and which DCS plates
are valid. For 'ipsetter', the PostScript routine
'wantDCSplate' must exist in the PSHDR or USER for this to work.
fpo-plates: Colour Plates to check for in FPO order
fpo-plates: Cyan%Magenta%Yellow%Black
Use the '%' as a separator for the different Plate names.
so colorFlag 1 is Cyan etc
'check-dcs-plates' also needs to be specified.
eps-comments-4colour: name of file in tables/form/postscript for
adding to as comments in the PostScript header to denote a
4 colour page. (As denoted by MP's 'COLOURPAGE 4' tag)
eps-comments-spot: name of file in tables/form/postscript for
adding to as comments in the PostScript header to denote a
spot colour page. (As denoted by MP's 'COLOURPAGE 1' tag)
eps-comments-backing: name of file in tables/form/postscript for
adding to as comments in the PostScript header to denote a
a pair of backing pages. (As denoted by MP's 'BACKING' tag)
eps-comments-black: name of file in tables/form/postscript for
adding to as comments in the PostScript header to denote a
mono page. (As denoted by MP's 'COLOURPAGE 1' tag or no tag at all)
extra-setpage: Extra information for the SETPAGE file default:none
Usually this is some FipSeq stuff (watch out - it is in FipSeq):
extra-setpage:combie:QX DI|XK|AB,defaultnfixed:BC \$d.\$mn
allow-dps:yes/no
allow-double-trucks:yes/no
This option will enable/disable the feature if a page with a
double-truck ad is followed immediately by the next subsequent
page, they are paired automatically. default: no
double-truck-scaling: (same parameters as for force-scaling)
dps-scaling: (same parameters as for force-scaling)
Scale a double page spread (dps) or wrap - default: same as for all other ads
this set the default - but normally it will be in the data (if not forced)
allow-partial-pages: yes/no
default is no
route-partial-pages: (name of route)
Only allow partial pages for this route
route-partial-pages:PARTPAGES
show-mpcol:yes/no
Use the PostScript variable FIPmpcol for movement. If used,
the variable MUST be defined in the PSHDR. FIPmpcol is finer
than FIPcol as it also includes the x and y of the folio.
default: no
editorial-folder:(Path in FipSeq)
Path to an editorial shape with predefined file name (see MP itself)
always-check-editorial:yes/no
Check for editorial on this page. Needs'editorial-folder' too. default is no
editorial-scaling: (same parameters as for force-scaling)
Scale editorial element- default: No scaling
editorial-offset-x:
editorial-offset-y: X/Y offsets for Editorial pages to position correctly
compared to the AdArea
Use this when the Editorial pages have a trim/bleed
It is the offset from the bottom left hand corner of the editorial template
to the 0,0 of the Ad/text area
check-for-folio-shape:FOLIONB
check-for-alt-folio-shape:FOLIOB
Normally Folios are output if selected in the MediaPlanner output drop down.
Use this to specify the name of a SHAPE on the page
If the shape exists, a Folio is output and the NO/FOLIO line ignored.
The ALT version will pull in a customer/folio of
(PUB)-(SECTION)-L/R-ALT.fip
rather than the normal
(PUB)-(SECTION)-L/R.fip
The name of the shape must NOT be one of our keywords - FOLIO, NOFOLIO,
PUBCODE, VRULE etc
no-folio-shape-x:2mm
no-folio-shape-y:-2mm
If using shapes to determine whether to add a folio (or an alt folio), use
these parameters to move full page elements where there is NO folio.
route:(MP string) (Output folder for 'ipsetter' to leave EPS file)
Map a ROUTE from Mediaplanner to an actual folder. This tells
'ipsetter' where to leave its output file
route:rip3 /fip/spool/2rip3
route:default /ppdata/poll
(note versions of ipsetter before 41f assumed the folder
was under /fip/spool/)
route-top:(MPstring) (Text/FipSeq/Fip markup to add at the top of
the data part of the file)
route-top:rip3 <z: 100000 -100000 translate>n
route-fiphdr:(MPstring) (extra FipHdr fields to add to the file)
eg route-fiphdr:xrx_dc340 RR:<z :376376/PageSize [842 1191] 377377
setpagedevice>
route-add-folios:(MProute)
route-no-folios:(MProute)
Do/Do NOT stuff a folio on for this route.
default: if a default folio has been specified, folio please.
route-add-furniture: (MProute)
route-no-furniture: (MProute)
Do/Do NOT stuff any page furniture on for this route.
default: if page furniture has been specified, draw it please.
route-show-missing-ads: (MProute)
For this route, show missing ads by a box and the Ad number.
route-blank-ads: (MProute)
For this route, white out the ad shape before printing.
This layers the ad on top of the furniture rather than using
the transparent feature which is default to level 2 rips.
route-always-pair: (MProute)
For this route, always pair and output doubles.
The default is to do whatever the 'PAGEPAIR' check box was.
route-never-pair: (MProute)
For this route, ignore all pairings and output single pages.
The default is to do whatever the 'PAGEPAIR' check box was.
route-ignore-dcs: (MProute)
If DCS is the default color method, ignore it for this path
and, if colour, output composite.
If there is a Template PostScript file in tables/form/postscript
called (in uppercase) (Routename)_NO_DCS, it is included
eg : route-ignore-dcs:composite_typhoon
will pull in a file called 'COMPOSITE_TYPHOON_NO_DCS'
route-filename: (MProute) (output filename in FipSeq)
Normally the filename of the output will be the same as the
input plus a 4 digit pagenumber extension. This allows
a different filename to be applied to a route.
Note this goes into the 'setpage' file for ipsetter to
interpret so you can use 'extra-setpage' to manipulate
FipHdr fields if necessary.
eg route-filename:pdf PFN-$d$h.pdf
route-round-robin-max: (MProute) (number)
A FipHdr field, PH, is filled with a sequencial number from
(normally) 1 to 2. This can be used with 'route-fiphdr' to
round-robin. Use this to change the max to another number.
route-left-page-offset-x: (MProute) (x offset in points of whole page)
route-left-page-offset-y: (MProute) (y offset in points of whole page)
route-right-page-offset-x: (MProute) (x offset in points of whole page)
route-right-page-offset-y: (MProute) (y offset in points of whole page)
For single pages, (ie NOT paired) move the whole page these offsets depending
on whether the folio number means it is a right or left hand page.
default is 0 for no offset for all of these.
eg : route-left-page-offset-x:pdf -5
route-right-page-offset-x:pdf 5.2
There is also case where a single page can be offset differently.
The syntax for this is :
route-special-left-page-offset-x: (MProute) (PageNo),(offset)
(plus similar lines for 'right' and 'y')
eg route-special-right-page-offset-x:pdf 24,-30
route-special-right-page-offset-y:pdf 24,10
Please remember to specify both X and Y as the default is, again, 0.
route-extra-fiphdr-file: Name of a file containing extra FipHdrs for including
with each file thru.
default: none
eg: route-extra-fiphdr-file:proofer
/fip/customer/supplements/NAME-OF-SUPPLEMENT
which could contain lines like :
BP:FRANCHISE SUPPLEMENT
allow-route-wilds:(FipHdrfield)
Allow routes to be route:plate1 plate2 etc
Specify as route:plate*
allow-route-wilds:Z7
Folio files can be setup for :
- all publications and all sections
- any variation of Owner Code, Pub Code and Section - any one of which can be
left as 'DEF' to flag default.
- L for Left and R for Right (or from version 04r, PAGE1)
- .eps files for standing items and .fip files containing FipMarkup for
'ipsetter'
These files are held in /fip/customer/folios.
The order of looking is (assuming a Left hand page) :
1. OO-PPP-SSS-L.fip
2. OO-PPP-XXX-L.fip
3. OO-PPP-DEF-L.fip
4. OO-DEF-SSS-L.fip
5. OO-DEF-XXX-L.fip
6. OO-DEF-DEF-L.fip
7. DEF-DEF-L.fip
if the PAGE1 flag is on, L can be the string PAGE1.
Or if ALT - alternative shapes is on, the syntax is
(PUB)-(SECTION)-L/R-ALT.fip
Or - you can use your own naming convention with the 'folio-name:' keyword
folio-name:PS
gives just (SECTION)-(L/R).fip
For Page Pairing, each publication should have a relevant parameter file
containing the following options which refer only to that pub.
If the two pages are for different sections, only the left-hand page is
checked.
pp-furniture:
pp-furniture-spot:
pp-furniture-4col: Optional EPS file(s) containing crop/register marks,
colour bars etc. This is layed down BEFORE any other
items. The full pathname should be specified. There is
no default. If the 4col or spot variants are not
specified, the main is used.
These files are in /tables/form/postscript
pp-page-x-high:
pp-page-y-high: Offset in points for top left position of the lefthand
page where the left page is a HIGHER folio number than
the right.
pp-page-x-low:
pp-page-y-low: Offset in points for top left position of the lefthand
page where the left page is a LOWER folio number than
the right.
pp-gutter: Gutter width in points default: 100.0 pts
pp-max-creep: Maximum creep to add to gutter default: 0 pts
IPXMP will calculate the fraction of this number as a
ratio of the two folio numbers (taking into account
pp-max-book-size) where Page 1 (or start of book) will
have the maximum added and two folios with consequetive
numbers will have zero added.
pp-max-book-size: Where publications are output in 16/32/64 page
sections or books and this affects the creep, this
defines the number of pages in such a book.
default is the sum of the two folios minus 1.
guard-pubcode: PubCode and Routing for Printer guards
syntax guard-pubcode:(pub or ownercode) (optional route)
The maximum edition size is 1000 pages
There can be up to 40 pubcode and pubcode/routes for guards.
guard-file: Path and name for the file containing all the guards
The syntax for the file is :
; comment lines start with ANY no-alpha chr
------ all leading spaces are ignored
(PUBCODE-SIZE) (spc) (left-page-no) (spc) (right--no)
or (OWNER-PUBCODE-SIZE) (spc) (left-no) (spc) (right-no)
Where SIZE is the EditionSize or IssueSize or a '*' meaning any EditionSize
Either left or right-page-no may be zero to signify a guard page
The maximum file size for the guard-file is 64k.

This is processed just before a FOLIO - so ALL pub, routing info is
available
default: none
extra-fiphdr-file: Name of a file containing extra FipHdrs for including with

output-name Rename output file in FipSeq
Normally the output filename (FipHdr SN) is the
same as the input file.
eg output-name:20.SN
allow-page-one-folio:
Normally the folio is ignored for page one
If a Page 1 folio is required for a single PageDefn/Section,
add 'allow-page-one-folio:check' to the parameter file

PUBCODE-SECTION-PAGE.fip
where PUBCODE and SECTION are as for all the other folios.
pages-with-no-folios:
Comma or space separated list of up to 30 page numbers which need no folios.
Use negetive numbers to specify pages from the BACK of the book.
where -1 is the back page, -2 the inside back etc. This only
works where there is an ISSUESIZE (ie a late version of MP).
Default is page 1 only unless 'allow-page-one-folio'
eg ; for an issuesize of 32, folios would NOT appear on 1,2,3,31,32
pages-with-no-folios:1,2,3,-2,-1
strip-folios-on-bleed-ads: (yes/no)

ignore-backing: Always Ignore backing pages option if selected
ignore-pairing: Always ignore page pairing option if selected
compensate-bb-path:

to the dimension given by MediaPlanner, the Y movement is
compensated for. default - ignore
eg compensate-bb-path:Edit
will check the Bounding Box for all files with 'Edit'
in their path somewhere (but NOT in the filename)
post-folio-script:
Script to run after the folio which creates a tmp file (Held in FipHdr QX)
containing more Fip Markup to include for a folio or page.
EG it could be a script calling variable data from a database for that pub.
post-folio-script:/fip/bin/ipadorachk -V 3 -H -h 'PC:PC#PN:PN' -O QX
In this example, adorachk is called with the ClassFolio (PC) and PageNumber
(PN)
end-page-script:
Script to run after each page - possibly for tracking purposes
end-file-script:
Script to run after each file - possibly for tracking purposes
force-scaling:None/Both/Horiz/Vert/Ignore
force the scaling of each ad to fill the space alloted
default: ignore - to used the MediaPlanner flag for each ad.
minimum-scale: (percentage between 0 and 100)
do NOT scale if the difference is less than this percentage
(this only takes effect if the scaling option is set of course)
default is 0% for no checking
maximum-scale: (percentage between 0 and 100)
scale ONLY if the difference is less than this percentage
(this only takes effect if the scaling option is set of course)
default is 0% for no checking
scale-error-folder: Any file with an which is outside either the min or max
scale can be placed here rather than sent.
An output file with scale errors is NOT sent if input switch -x (do NOT
output if there are missing ads) or -X is set.

reset-colour: FipSeq string to add before Page, Furniture and Folio
reset-colour:n<z: FipColorReset>n
there is no default
check-composite-colour: (no/yes)
This ignores the COLOURPAGE setting from MediaPlanner (set when a certain
plan is chosen) and works out whether the page is colour or mono from the
BOOKING (ie does NOT drip down each file checking what it really is).
default is NO
See also the -4 input switch which sets the default to YES
use-alt-dates: use FipHdr T* rather than Z* for dates
insert-after-folio:FipSeq string to add after the Folio and before ads
insert-after-folio:n<z: .75 .75 scale>n

add-spread-type:
Add the Spread type (ODD or EVEN) as a PostScript variable. This adds either
:
/FIP-X-SpreadTypeE where { pop (MEDI) FIP-X-SpreadTypeE copy pop }if
or /FIP-X-SpreadTypeO where { pop (MEDI) FIP-X-SpreadTypeO copy pop }if
include:
or
include-pubcode-file: 2nd parameter file which include ANY of the above
parameters which are specific to that owner-pubcode.
(except 'include-pubcode-file' of course!)
This enables a single main parameter file for all pubcodes
and a couple of include files where there are alterations/additions.
Note the Owner-PubCode is AUTOMATICALLY added to the filename
so : 'include-pubcode-file:data-range'
and an Owner-Pubcode of ES-ES
looks for a file called 'DATE-RANGE-ES-ES'
(or 'DATE-RANGE-ES-ES.fip' for Win2K)
There can be 2 include files. If the Owner code version is not found, then a
default with NO owner code can be used.
log-line: Custom Message line for logging (in FipSeq)
default is ": PR : PP PS PN ZG-ZT-ZZ"
for Route Pub Section PageNo PubDate
default-font:(name of a font in the tables/form/SETTER file)
default is 'times'
folio-name:(FipSeq of name of folio to use))
the '-L.fip' or -R.fip is suffixed automatically
default is folio-name:PP-PS
to give (PUB)-(SECTION)-(L/R).fip
eq folio-name:PS
gives just (SECTION)-(L/R).fip
new-folio:(FipSeq for a field containing the Folio number to use)
default is FP
furniture-scaling: (same parameters as for force-scaling)
Scale EPS furniture elements - default: No scaling
furniture-offset-x:
furniture-offset-y: X/Y offsets for EPS furniture to position correctly
compared to the AdArea

It is the offset from the bottom left hand corner of the editorial template
to the 0,0 of the Ad/text area
shrink-ad: (yes/no/horiz/vert)
shrink-ad-amount:
or
shrink-ad-percent:
shrink-ad-max
shrink-ad-min
replace-ad:(Name of Shape) (replacement markup)
If a shape has a name that starts with this string, then replace the shape
with the replacement markup - see program doc for 'ipsetter' forthe markup.
The name of the snape is put into FipHdr PA if it needs to be used.
replace-ad:continued <f=DINBOLD><p:20>PA
If the shape is called "Continued on Page 33", then this text is put in the
ad hole in 20pt DIN-Bold
If there is a space in the (name), pls enclose the whole in double quotes
replace-ad:"Continued on" ....markup.....
fiphdr-colour-bckg: (2 letter FipHdr field)
fiphdr-colour-text:: (2 letter FipHdr field)
Add two Fiphdr fields which will hold the colour settings for Page-Background

4 or more days starting Monday!)
ZC - Dow
ZP - AM/PM
Note that actual Day and Month names depend on your LOCALE
Note that ONLY PP - owner/pub code - is usable when the parameter file is read
in. So any conditional FipSeq can only be on PP.
eg to force the BoundingBox Y to be different (1060 pts v 1117 pts as default)
for these two publications :
; V0,1 QY for force-bboxy - different y size, 1117 except 2HE and 2HB which
should be 57 less
; F1-F4 for Folios offsets
option:V0 PP,,,,NL-2HB
option:V1 PP,,,,NL-2HE
fixed:V2 V01060$oV11060$o
combie:QY V2,1117
force-bbox-y:QY
EPSF variables
--------------
FIPmpX and FIPmpY are stuffed at the top of the data part and contain the
MediaPlanner Page width and depth in decipoints.
eg <z: /FIPmpX 5939 def /FIPmpY 7937 def >
From version 04w, PostScript variables used are :
For each included file :
FipBB1 - FipBB4 Bounding Box
FipCC1 - FipCC4 Crop Box as defined by MediaPlanner
FipCropX Y Crop width and depth
FipMPscaleX Y Scale values
Others
FIPmpType 'L' or 'R' for page type
FIPmpFolioX Y Folio offset (in decipoints)
FIPmpPageX Y Page offset (from offset-page-x or route-left-page-offset-x) (in
decipoints)
FIPmpX Y MP page width and depth (in decipoints)
Converting NON-eps files to PostScript
-------------------------------------
The syntax of the 'image' keyword is
image: (name) magic:(1st 4 chrs of file) script: (script to run to convert)
- Use double quotes to keep the spaces
- The script MUST generate a file in spool/epsf with the same filename as the
input with an Extra extension of '.eps'.
examples of using Image Alchemy to convert TIFF files :
image:tiffII magic:"II*00" script:"/usr/forum/bin/alchemy QN QN.eps -Q -o
-e --."
image:tiffMM magic:"MM00*" script:"/usr/forum/bin/alchemy QN QN.eps -Q -o
-e --."
image:pdf magic:%PDF script:"/usr/local/bin/pdf2ps QN QN.eps"
- Note that even more FipHdr fields are available ONLY for the script :
QN - Full Path and Filename of the input file to be converted
QR - Path or queue for converted files and files to convert
which defaults to /fip/spool/epsf
SN - name of the input file to the program !
QI - name of the input queue
Other Notes
-----------
Although the default measurements are in points, millimetres were introduced in
version 03a. All postional parameters in the MEDIAPLANNER file can be defained
as millimetres by using 'm' or 'mm' after the amount:
eg pp-gutter: 84.33mm
pp-max-creep: 9mm
From version 01j, the default is force 'ipsetter' to put a FipHdr on its output
file. Use
route-fiphdr:(route) #FQ:/ppdata/poll#FnoFIPHDR:
to force setter to leave its file in a folder with NO FipHdr - for Distiller
for example.
-------- Example of a MP-OPI-STUB-? file -------
This is a template with FipSeq for the FipVariables for size and position. The
file is in fip/tables/postscript and the '?' is the ad type. (see the doc for
ipsetter for the actual FipHdr fields)
%%BeginObject: FipOpi $V
%ALDImageFileName: /FJ
%ALDObjectComments: WARNING: A 72 x 72 DPI PICTURE INCLUDED
%ALDImageCropRect: F1 F2 F3 F4
%ALDImagePosition: F5 F6 F5 F8 F7 F8 F7 F6
%%BeginObject: image $V
F5 F6 F5 F8 F7 F8 F7 F6 ALDImagePosition
(FJ) F5 F6 ALDImageFileName
