PAGE NUMBER Control
Purpose:
The PAGE NUMBER control word allows the user to control both
external and internal page numbering of the file being
printed.
Format:
I I
I • PN 1
I I
OFF
OFFNO
ON
OFF suppresses external page numbering, although internal
page numbering continues.
OFFNO suppresses both external and internal page numbering.
ON causes external page numbering to be resumed.
Usage:
.PN is used to control the page-numbering feature of the
system. If the OFF operand is specified, page numbering is
discontinued on the printout, although the page numbers
continue to be incremented internally. The OFFNO operand
discontinues page nurr'bering on the printout and stops the
internal incrementation of page numbers. When the ON operand
is specified, page numbering resumes from the last internal
page number.
Examples:
a. .pn off
No further page numbers will appear on SCRIPT output,
although the internal page count continues to be incremented
for each page printed.
b. .PN OFFNO
No page numbers will appear on SCRIPT output, and the
internal page count remains at its current setting without
further incrementation.
c. .PN ON
Page numbering on SCRIPT output resuroes using the current
internal page count; this count is incremented for each page
printed.
