Hello Team,

I have a JCL as follows that prints the AFP dataset.

Code:

//LASER OUTPUT DEFAULT=YES,JESDS=ALL,CHARS=AG12,               
//             FORMS=XX33O,PAGEDEF=V8801,FORMDEF=VIGP00       
//SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=my dataset
//AFP      DD  SYSOUT=*,DSORG=PS,                       
//             LRECL=13000,RECFM=VBM,BUFNO=30           
//#SI          OUTPUT  CLASS=Q,FORMDEF=VIGP00,DEST=printername,   
//             PIMSG=(YES,0)                   
//SYSUT2 DD  SYSOUT=(,,),HOLD=NO,     
//             OUTPUT=*.#SI,                   
//             DCB=*.AFP         
             


The jcl works fine . But what I would like to know is how to get from which PDS the JCL has taken the font , pagedef and formdefs.

Thanks .

Fonts , pagedefs, and formdefs are processed by jes and afp tasks
and are usually taken from SYS1.IMAGELIB
( as well as FCBs for line mode printers )

but the best place to ask how things are handled in Your organization is to ask Your support

the finger was faster than the brain ...

see here for the content of some of most important system datasets

the list might be incomplete because it refers to OS/390
but the basic stuff is there
