-
n
-
specifies the range of lines to skip from
0 to 20.
-
MIN
-
sets the number of lines to skip to 0, so
no lines are skipped.
-
MAX
-
sets the number of lines to skip to 20.
-
hex
-
specifies the number of lines to skip as
a hexadecimal number. You must specify the value beginning with a number (0-9),
followed by an X. For example, the value 0ax
specifies to skip 10 lines.
The location of the first line is relative
to the position established by carriage control or by the forms control buffer
on the printer. Most sites define this position so that the first line of
a new page begins three or four lines down the form. If this spacing is sufficient,
specify SKIP=0 so that additional lines are not skipped.
The SKIP= value does not affect the maximum number of
lines printed on each page, which is controlled by the PAGESIZE= system option.
