Use this dialog box to configure PDL actions. PDL actions are complex actions that can change the commands that tell the printer how to print a document. This is currently implemented for PJL (printer job language). You can access this dialog box when you configure a custom PDL action from the Process Designer.

You can click in the Configured Parameters, Command Attribute, or Command column to preview the configured commands.
Add - Adds a command to the PDL action. The Command Configuration dialog box is displayed. The commands represent the actual lines to be inserted such as "@PJL SET STAPLE = Parameter1". At runtime, the parameters are replaced with the correct values. One PDL action can have multiple commands for different printer families. For example, this allows setting up a single STAPLE action that works correctly with Canon, Xerox, Ricoh, and so on.
Modify - Modifies the selected command. The Command Configuration dialog box is displayed.
Remove - Removes the selected command.
