How to copy a DBCS table from a tape or diskette

 

You can follow these steps to copy a DBCS font table from tape or diskette onto the system.

1. Load the removable media from which the table will be copied onto the system.

2. Enter the CPYIGCTBL command as follows:

   1. Choose the OPTION(*IN) value.

   2. Use the DEV parameter to select the device from which to copy the DBCS font table.

   3. Use the SELECT and RANGE parameters to specify which portion of the table will be copied from the tape or diskette. See the CL topic collection for a description of the CPYIGCTBL command and for instructions on choosing SELECT and RANGE parameter values.

   Here are two examples of commands used to copy a DBCS font table to the system.

   • To copy the DBCS font table QIGC2424 from diskette, enter the following command:

     CPYIGCTBL IGCTBL(QIGC2424) OPTION(*IN) +
       DEV(QDKT)

   • To copy just the user-defined characters from DBCS font table QIGC2424 from tape and to replace the user-defined characters in the table with the ones from the tape, enter the following command:

     CPYIGCTBL IGCTBL(QIGC2424) OPTION(*IN) +
       DEV(QTAP01) SELECT(*USER) RPLIMG(*YES)

3. Press Enter. The system copies the DBCS font table from the tape or diskette onto the system.
