The option selected is used by the compliance Hardcopy Output (SMRCRLT) when printing hardcopy output which includes the area. The flags from the area library are used in conjunction with the rules for output defined on the Compliance Print Type Rules (SMACPRT) page. For example, if the print type rules specify to print area text, but the area library specifies Print Nothing, no area text is printed for the area. The print type rules control what area information is printed, subject to the additional control defined in the group library area. |
