I am trying to print pagsegments and overlays in a spool file on
AS400.The spoolfile needs to be formatted and vertical ,horizontal
lines as well as boxes are reuired to be inserted in the splf.The
operating system version I am using is V5R1. I have seen LINE(1.3 2.6
0.2 *VRT *NARROW) and BOX keywords but they are not working in the DDS
on my version.As I can't see these keywords in the help of Printer file
keywords.
I can do the above task by drawing overlays but It would be least
effort consuming if keywords work.
I would appreciate if anybody throws some light on it.

As far as I know LINE and BOX keywords were available at V2R3M0 and 
maybe even before. To succesfully use AFP keywords you must create a 
prtf with at least DEVTYPE(*AFPDS)
