(v13) Receiving the output data from the RIP

This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; and to Harlequin MultiRIP but not Harlequin Core

The RIP sends output data to the plugin with the D_OUTPUT selector. If the plugin has not readied the output device for output during the D_OPEN call, it should do so at this point.

The plugin should use the d_linesprinted field of the deviceDefinition structure to record its progress in the page being output. The RIP zeros this value at the start of each page.

See (v13) D_OUTPUT for a description of D_OUTPUT .
