(v13) The PostScript language fs device
This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; and to Harlequin MultiRIP but not Harlequin Core
An I/O device (%fs%
) is provided for use in PostScript language code to make the details of plugin file locations easier to handle. The details of this %fs%
device are complex, but in simple use, a file in the current device plugin's Misc
directory called name
(suitably nameāmapped where necessary) can be referred to in PostScript language code by the name (%fs%PluginMisc/
name
)
. In addition, the appropriate setup file (whether or not called Setup
) can be referred to by the name (%fs%Setup)
and the appropriate target file (whether or not called Target
) by the name (%fs%Target)
.
There are many other variations possible in the %fs%
device, but plugins will not normally need to refer to any of them. The variations are used internally by the RIP dialogs and page setup procsets.
