Administering forms Configuring Xprint V7.0
6.9.3 Modifying the attributes of a form
You can modify the attributes of any form which you administer or which you are
allowed to use:
The attributes of the default form GENERIC of Xprint V7.0 cannot be
modified, even by the system administrator.
● To modify the attributes of a form, use the following command:
xpmod -frm [selection] modifications
For selection you can either specify a list of forms whose attributes you want
to modify, or you can use the -scl “selection_criteria_list” option (see
section “Selection criteria list” on page 266 in the Appendix) to define a list
of criteria according to which the relevant forms are selected. If selection is
not specified, all forms are modified accordingly.
modifications represents a list of changes to be made to the selected form(s).
Each entry in this modifications list consists of one of the options of the
xpadd -frm command listed in section “Adding a form” on page 157 and a
corresponding value.
Examples
– To modify the attributes of the form form1 such that the form layup is set to
landscape format and the default font to font1.
xpmod -frm form1 -ls LANDSCAPE -ft font1
– To modify the paper format of all forms with the setting A4
(297 mm x 210 mm) to Legal (14 inch x 8.5 inch):
xpmod -frm -scl "-ph 297m -pw 210" -ph 14i -pw 8.5i
