OB2CMR subcommand

OB2CMR cmr-lname {AUDIT | INSTR | LINK}
OB2CMR
Specify a Color Management Resource (CMR) and its process mode for a data object specified within an included object. CMRs are secondary objects when used at this level. An object specified here will be mapped with object scope.
cmr-lname
The CMR local name. This name must have been defined with a DEFINE CMRNAME command.
processing-mode-parameter
Specify the processing mode for the CMR.
AUDIT
CMRs with the audit processing mode refer to processing that has already been applied to a resource. In most cases, audit CMRs describe input data and are similar to ICC input profiles.

The audit processing mode is used primarily with color conversion CMRs. In audit processing mode, those CMRs indicate which ICC profile must be applied to convert the data into the Profile Connection Space (PCS).

INSTR
CMRs with the instruction processing mode refer to processing that is done to prepare the resource for a specific printer using a certain paper or another device. Generally, instruction CMRs refer to output data and are similar to ICC output profiles.

The instruction processing mode is used with color conversion, tone transfer curve, and halftone CMRs. In instruction processing mode, these CMRs indicate how the system must convert a resource so it prints correctly on the target printer. The manufacturer of your printer should provide ICC profiles or a variety of CMRs that you can use. Those ICC profiles and CMRs might be installed in the printer controller, included with the printer on a DVD, or available for download from the manufacturer's Web site.

LINK
This CMR defines a direct color conversion from an input color space to a device output color space; process the CMR as a link CMR. This processing mode is only valid for device link (DL) CMRs. The PPFA command RENDER is not used with device link (DL) CMRs as such CMRs specify the intended rendering intent internally. This function requires print server (PSF) and printer support which is in addition to the original CMR support.

OB2R Subcommand

OB2R {i2name |'i2name'| C'i2name'| E'i2name'| A'i2name'| X'hhhh'}
OB2R
Specify a secondary object to be mapped.

If an included object contains a reference to one or more secondary objects, you must identify them at this point. Specify the internal name for the secondary resource as specified in the included resource. If the internal name contains special characters such as periods or blanks, then quotes must surround the name.

i2name
Unquoted name up to 250 characters long will be folded to upper case and translated into EBCDIC if necessary.
i2name
Quoted name up to 250 characters long will be accepted as-is with no case folding or translation.
C'i2name
Quoted name with a C for Character will be treated the same as a quoted name of up to 250 characters. No folding or translation will be done.
E’i2name
Quoted name with an E for EBCDIC entered with up to 250 characters will be accepted as-is if on an EBCDIC platform or translated to EBCDIC if on an ASCII platform. The translation will be made with no case folding.
A’i2name
Quoted name with an A for ASCII entered with up to 250 single-byte characters will be accepted as-is if on an ASCII platform or translated to ASCII if on an EBCDIC platform. The translation will be made with no case folding.
X’hhhh
Quoted name with an X for Hexadecimal entered with up to 500 hexadecimal characters. The characters will be translated to hexadecimal, but no assumptions of data type will be made.

OB2XNAME Subcommand

OB2XNAME{x2name |'x2name'| C'x2name' | E'x2name'| A'x2name'| X‘hhhh’|
         U8'x2name' | U16'x2name' | X8'hhhh' | X16'hhhh'}
OB2XNAME
Specifies the external name for a secondary resource object. The name can be up to 250 characters. If the name contains special characters or blanks, then quotes must surround the name.
x2name
Unquoted name up to 250 characters long will be folded to upper case and translated into EBCDIC if necssary.
i2name'
Quoted name up to 250 characters long will be accepted as-is with no case folding or translation.
C’x2name
Quoted name with an C for Character will be treated the same as a quoted name up to 250 characters. No folding or translation is done.
E’x2name
Quoted name with an E for EBCDIC entered with up to 250 single-byte characters will be accepted as-is if on an EBCDIC platform or translated to EBCDIC if on an ASCII platform. The translation will be made with no case folding.
A’x2name
Quoted name with an A for ASCII entered with up to 250 single-byte characters will be accepted as-is on an ASCII platform or translated to ASCII if on an EBCDIC platform. The translation will be made with no case folding.
Xhhhh
Quoted name with an X for Hexadecimal entered with up to 500 hexadecimal characters. The characters will be translated to hexadecimal, but no assumption of data type will be made.
U8’x2name
Quoted name with a U8 for UTF-8 entered with up to 250 single-byte characters will be translated to UTF-8.
X8hhhh
Quoted name with an X8 for UTF-8 HEX entered with up to 500 single-byte hexadecimal characters will be translated to hexadecimal and assumed to be data type UTF-8. There must be a multiple of 2 hexadecimal characters entered.
U16’x2name
Quoted name with a U16 for UTF-16 entered with up to 125 single-byte characters will be translated to UTF-16.
X16hhhh
Quoted name with an X16 for UTF-16 HEX entered with up to 500 single-byte hexadecimal characters will be translated to hexadecimal and assumed to be data type UTF-16. There must be a multiple of 4 hexadecimal characters entered.

OB2ID Subcommand

OB2ID {n | type-name }
OB2ID
Specifies the component type identifier for a secondary resource.
n
Object type number from the Component ID column of Table Object Types that can be referenced as Secondary Resources.

Object Types that can be referenced as Secondary Resources

Type Name Component ID Description of OID Type-Name
PDFRO 26 PDF Resource Object (new)
