Procsets in the Harlequin RIP

This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; both Harlequin Core and Harlequin MultiRIP

This page and its descendants list supported procsets and describes some smaller procsets not described in other places.

ProcSet resources are a valuable way of extending the features of the RIP in a way that allows OEMs to customize the exact behavior of these extensions in their implementations of the RIP.

Resources are described in [RB3]. Using the findresource operator on a ProcSet resource category yields a dictionary containing a set of procedures (and occasionally other values).

GGS also uses short-lived procsets as a way to modify or patch the behavior of the RIP in situations where the necessary behavior is being defined or where the need for that behavior is believed to be temporary.

Many of our procsets have a /ProcSetVersion key in the procset so you can determine which version is installed. To determine the current version of the procset use the following, substituting the name of the procset:

  <procset_name> /ProcSet findresource /ProcSetVersion get ==
