AKQ260E: (insert-1) not allowed with/on a (insert-2).

Explanation: This is a generic message which indicates a contextually incorrect combination of PPFA commands or subcommands. If this message indicates an action is not allowed with/on a CMR of this type, the processing mode is not valid for that type of CMR. LINK is valid only for device link (DL) CMRs and device link (DL) CMRs can only have processing mode LINK. Any other use of LINK processing mode results in error message AKQ260E. This message may indicate a PPFA command that is not compatible with MO:DCA IS/3.

System action: A page definition or form definition is not generated.

System action: A page definition is not generated.

Operator response: Correct the indicated problem.

AKQ263E: (insert-1) exceeds (insert-2).

Explanation: This is a generic message which indicates an out of bound condition for some parameters. For example that a DRAWGRAPHIC CIRCLE is positioned off the logical page.

System action: A page definition is not generated.

Operator response: Correct the indicated problem.

AKQ264W: (insert-1) is ignored (insert-2).

Explanation: This is a generic message which indicates that a contextually incorrect combination of PPFA commands or subcommands is clearly incorrect and is just ignored. For example, if a LINEONE subcommand was coded on a Record Format PAGEDEF (for example, one using LAYOUT), the LINEONE subcommand would just be ignored.

System action: A page definition is generated.

Operator response: No action necessary unless the result is not what you wanted.

AKQ265W: (insert-1) exceeds (insert-2).

Explanation: This is a generic message which indicates an out of bound condition for some parameters which is not necessarily critical. For example, when a DRAWGRAPHIC CIRCLE is positioned outside the margin boundary but still on the logical page.

System action: A page definition is generated.

Operator response: No action necessary unless the result is not what you wanted.

AKQ266E: PAGEDEF CONTAINS BOTH LAYOUT AND PRINTLINE COMMANDS.

Explanation: Lines are placed in a record format page definition using LAYOUT commands or in an XML page definition using XLAYOUT command, otherwise lines are placed with PRINTLINE commands. They cannot be mixed in the same page definition.

Operator response: Define a font.

AKQ270E: PDF417 MACRO DATA BYTE (insert-1), CODEPOINT (insert-2) CANNOT BE TRANSLATED TO GLI 0 ENCODATION.

Explanation: This is an ASCII barcode and all code points must ultimately end up as ASCII. The printer will translate EBCDIC code points if you tell it, but it will translate the Macro data as well as the regular data.

When EBCDIC TO ASCII translation is requested for a PDF417 barcode, and the PAGEDEF is being compiled on an ASCII platform, and there is macro data it will be in ASCII. You now have mixed data which cannot be translated. So PPFA must translate the ASCII macro data to EBCDIC so that both will be the same. The printer can now translate the data and print the barcode. Now, not all EBCDIC code points will translate to GLI0 and we have just found one.

System action: The PAGEDEF will not be generated.

Operator response: Make sure that all the PDF417 macro text will translate to good EBCDIC code points.

AKQ271E: THE FONT TYPE AND USER DATA TYPE (UDTYPE) SPECIFIED CAUSES A DATA TRANSFORMATION THAT IS NOT SUPPORTED.

Explanation: When the User's Data Type (UDType) and font encoding are different, the printer must translate your data to the encoding type of the font. For example, if the UDType is UTF8 and the font is an ASCII font, then the printer would have to translate your data from UTF8 to ASCII. For this reason combinations are restricted to the following:

UDType of UTF8
Fonts can only be ASCII or UNICODE.
UDType of UTF16
Fonts can only be UNICODE.
.

System action: PAGEDEF is not generated.

User response: Chooses an appropriately encoded font.

AKQ275I: (insert-1)

Explanation: This is a generic informational message. Variable text inserts are printed. Two examples are:

  1. EXTERNAL OBJECT NAME IS DUPLICATED.
  2. KEYWORD USED AS A NAME. CHECK NAME NOT OMITTED. PROCESSING CONTINUES.

System action: Compilation continues. This definition is generated and stored or replaced.

Operator response: Make sure that the situation warned against is desired. For example, that the keyword used as a name is not actually a missing name, or that the duplicated object name is intended.

AKQ2MMS: NUMBER OF MESSAGES EXCEEDS THE 270 ALLOWED LIMIT. PROGRAM TERMINATES.
