AFP Visual Environment commands

AFP Visual Environment commands apply the definitions in an AFP Visual Environment control file to production AFP files. These commands can run on IBM AIX, IBM z/OS, and Microsoft Windows systems.

In this section:

  1. EditAFP command
    EditAFP hides areas, creates bar codes, and masks text in a production AFP file and writes the output to another file. The bar codes, hidden areas, and text masks must be defined in an AFP Visual Environment control file. This command is available only if AFP Editor is installed.
  2. IndexAFP command
    IndexAFP creates page groups and index tags in a production AFP file and writes the output to another file. The page groups and index tags must be defined in an AFP Visual Environment control file. This command is available only if AFP Indexer is installed.
  3. PluginMgr command
    PluginMgr can run both the EditAFP and IndexAFP commands and write the output to an AFP file. Or, PluginMgr can run only the command that you specify.
