Your installation includes several XDC files that describe
the more common printers used. Modify the XDC files if your printers
require different configuration or are not supported by the XDC
files that are included with your installation. In this case, you
can use XDC Editor to create or modify XDC files to meet your requirements.
As your
starting point, modify copies of the XDC files that are available
from the AEM forms SDK.
The SDK includes sample and template XDC files. The sample XDC
files are for specific types of printers. Template XDC files are
for generic print description languages such as PostScript language
level 2 or PCL 5c. After you customize an XDC file for your printer,
you can store the file in the Adobe document services server or
on a local hard drive.
Note:
Using a tool other than XDC Editor to modify
XDC files is not recommended. Undetected format or syntax errors
in the XDC file can cause print problems that are difficult to diagnose,
and the cache for an XDC file is not dynamically updated after the
file is modified.
Template XDC files for generic print description languages
This table describes the XDC files that are installed that
represent generic print description language support.
