29.4.1 Adding PostScript Support

To add support for the handling of PostScript documents, an option file must be created, and an addressing channel configured, if one is not already available. Consult Section 28.1 for details on configuring an addressing channel; consult Section 29.2 for instructions on setting up an option file.

Two options must be specified in the option file. (Others can or can not be required.) These two options are ADDRESSING_CHANNEL=domain_name and FROM_ALLOWED=1. Here, domain_name should be the domain name associated with the addressing channel you have or will configure; e.g.,


ADDRESSING_CHANNEL=address.example.com 
FROM_ALLOWED=1 

You can also need to specify the CHARSET option. If the addressing channel will be accepting PostScript from a Macintosh, then specify CHARSET=MACINTOSHPS; if the channel will be accepting PostScript from a PC running windows, then specify CHARSET=WINDOWSPS. See Section 29.4.2 for futher details on the use of this option.

A sample option file is shown below:


ADDRESSING_CHANNEL=address.example.com 
CHARSET=MACINTOSHPS 
FROM_ALLOWED=1 
If multiple queues are set up, then use entries of the form


ADDRESSING_CHANNEL=address.example.com 
CHARSET_queue1=MACINTOSHPS 
CHARSET_queue2=MACINTOSHPS 
FROM_ALLOWED=1 
where queue1 and queue2 are the names of the individual queues.
