PrintTicket Conformance Test (PTConform)

  • 项目

Type: Automated Test

Overview

The PrintTicket Conformance Test (PTConform) is a conformance tool that you can use to check the validity of PrintTicket and PrintCapabilities documents. PTConform checks that a given PrintTicket or PrintCapabilities syntactically and structurally conforms to the public PrintSchema definition.

Details

The Print Schema provides an XML-based format for expressing and organizing a large set of properties that describe either a job format or capabilities of a print queue in a hierarchically structured manner. The PrintSchema has well-defined public framework elements and public keywords.

 

PTConform reads through an XML document and tests each node to be a valid public framework element. After testing for validity of the framework element, this test checks to see if it defines any public keyword element and checks for the keyword to conform to the PrintSchema.

Note  If a framework node does not contain a public keyword but rather a printer driver’s private namespace keyword, keyword validation is skipped for that node.

 

The results of the test are logged in the log file PTConform.log or PTConform.xml depending on the LogType chosen in the command line parameters.

Command Syntax

Command option Description
PTConform.exe /PrintTicket=PrintTicketXMLFileName /LogType=LogType /Verbosity=LogVerbosityLevel
PrintTicketXMLFileName Is the PrintTicket XML saved as a file on disk.
/LogType LogType – Specifies the type of logging that you want. This option takes one of two values: "wtt" or "txt". When "wtt", a WTT logfile named PTConform.xml is created. When "txt", a text log file named PTConform.log is created. The default value is "txt". To obtain a WTT log, WTTLog.dll must be installed on the system.
LogVerbosityLevel Specifies the verbosity of the log file that is produced. This option takes the following values: "1" will log only error messages and "2" will log traces and error messages.
PTConform.exe /PrintTicket=XmlFileName Use PTConform to test a PrintTicket.
PTConform.exe /PrintCapabilities=XmlFileName Use PTConform to test a PrintCapabilities.
PTConform.exe /Printer=PrintQueueName Use PTConform to test the default PrintTicket for a specific print queue.
