Qualifiers

 

/FORMAT
      /FORMAT=format-name

   Specifies the encoding format of the input or output file. The
   default input and output format is DDIF.

   Input converters bundled with the CDA Base Services and the
   default file extensions for the file formats they support are as
   follows:

   Input Format   File Extension

   DDIF           .DDIF
   DTIF           .DTIF
   TEXT           .TXT

   Output converters bundled with the CDA Base Services for
   OpenVMS DECwindows Motif and the default file extensions for the
   file formats they support are as follows:

   Output
   Format         File Extension

   DDIF           .DDIF
   DTIF           .DTIF
   TEXT           .TXT
   PS             .PS
   ANALYSIS       .CDA$ANALYSIS
 

/OPTIONS
      /OPTIONS=options-filename

   Specifies a file that contains processing option for both input
   and output. An options file is a text file with a default file
   extension of .CDA$OPTIONS on OpenVMS systems.

   An options file is not required. Default processing options are
   applied automatically when you convert a file. You may, however,
   require settings other than the default. Processing options can
   help ensure minimal changes when your input file is converted to
   a different output file format.
 

/MESSAGE_FILE
      /MESSAGE_FILE=filespec
      /NOMESSAGE_FILE (default)

   Turns on message logging for document conversion. Messages output
   by the input and output converters are directed to the file
   specified with filespec. If filespec is not specified, messages
   are output to SYS$ERROR. The default is /NOMESSAGE_FILE.
