A member prefix can be specified (A-Z or *NONE). If the prefix is a letter, the member name
of the PCL files will then be the name of the PC file preceded by this character.
Note, that in order to be able to use the PCL files when designing overlays, the PC files have
to be placed as members in the APF3812/PCL file (for Black and white) or the
APF3812/PCLCOL file (for colour files).
PCL files not placed in PCL and PCLCOL can only be used by inserting &&-commands in the
spool file.
TIF files can be inserted with a simular command, as seen at page 464.
The Print PCL-member Command
This command can be used in conjunction with PCL files, that are already installed in
InterForm400. With this command you can print such an installed black/white PCL file:

(After installation and preparation the installed B/W PCL files are saved as members in the
PCL file in InterForm400). The unit used for displacement is dots measured in 300 dots per
inch. A negative value for an offset will move the PCL file up/left compared to the original.
