Syntax

 

if copy n,n,…

end if

 

Description

 

The if copy command will cause any following commands, up to an end if command, to apply only to the copy or copies specified.  The feature is used to manipulate the content of various copies.  For example, you may wish to add a text message on a specific copy, or suppress a region of text with a white shade.  When combined with attach and notext keywords, attachments can be added without the printing of text.

 

end if indicates that conditional processing of the rule set is done, and keywords apply to all copies again. The end if keyword may also be entered as endif or fi.

 

Examples:

 

if copy 2 will process keywords following this line, until an endif keyword is found, and apply keywords only to copy 2.

 

if copy 3,4,6 will apply keywords to the 3 copies identified.
