EscapeE configuration symbols

Previous topic Next topic JavaScript is required for expanding text  

The default configuration is stored in a number of environment symbols which will normally be set from the program's configuration or main (export) menus.

Most of these symbols are stored in the [PCLVIEW] section of the RT.INI file and have the same names as the corresponding command-line option. For example

INPUT=PCL

IMAGECACHE=12

The following symbols are in the main [REDTITAN] section of the RT.INI file:

DRIVERDEFAULTS

Set DRIVERDEFAULTS=Y to ignore any paper type, duplexing and/or bin selection in the original PCL file and use the defaults from the Windows® printer driver setup dialog instead.

ERASE

When in timed mode (see To set automatic export options) this specifies whether input files are to be erased after they have been processed: ERASE=Y
or not: ERASE=N

See also /ERASE

HISTORY

Defines the number of files (>8) stored in the history list. In the special case
HISTORY = 0
the file names are never written to the INI file.

PACK

TIFF options are set up as flag bits, see TIFF images file export. The default (i.e. no bits set) is byte aligned.

16 = Bit reversal

64 = EOL

128 = Single strip

256 = carry odd bits over to next row

REPORT

EscapeE may be set up to put an error summary into the error log when running in batch or automatic mode: set REPORT=Y
This gives more details of errors such as missing fonts.

RTLANG

Set the language version of EscapeE:

33 = French
34 = Spanish
44 = English
49 = German
55 = Portuguese.

RTPCLLIB

The folder where the resident fonts are stored.

RTPCLDL

The folder where the downloaded fonts will be stored.

TTLIB

The filename of the character recognition database.

Technical note

If the /INI option is specified and the REDTITAN symbol is not found, EscapeE sets up the REDTITAN symbol in WIN.INI if it can write to it, otherwise in the Registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\REDTITAN\REDTITAN
