Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Following are some of the frequently asked questions about SPLTOOL. When reporting problems, please send them via email stating the problem. Let me know what version of SPLTOOL you are using. See the main FAQ for instructions on finding the version you currently have installed.

Does SPLTOOL work with Non-*SCS spooled files (ie AFP, IPDS, etc)?

No, currently SPLTOOL does not work on non-*SCS spooled files. For conversion of AFPDS spooled files please see the AFPTOOL product.
When converting spooled files to PDF, SPLTOOL works fine for spooled files 132 wide, but spooled files wider than this get truncated. Do you have a solution??
Yes. SPLTOOL has a command named SPLTOOL PDF Configuration (SPLPDFCFG) that allows you to set up the attributes of the created PDF file. These attributes are based on the original spooled file's attributes. You can read more about this command and how it works in the online documentation
