• Text Block Name: Enter a name for the block. Do not use embedded blanks. Enter also a description, which may contain embedded blanks.

• Conditions Row: Row in the input spool file to test for the conditional value. You need not specify a test, in which case the text or macro will be included in the output stream for each page.
• From Column: Starting column in the input spool file to look for text to test.
• To Column: Ending colum in the input spool file.
• Equal: Text to test for in the input spool file. This can include blanks. So for example to test row 1, columns 1 through 5 for blanks is a valid test.

• Font: Select a font by prompting with a ?. This font is used for any specified text. If you do not specify a font any text in this block uses the default font.

• Xloc: X location in pixels, 300 pixels / inch, of the starting position of the pcl cursor before the text is included.
• Yloc: Y location in pixels, 300 pixels / inch, of the starting position of the pcl cursor.
• RelY: For text with more than 1 line, number of pixels, 300 pixels / inch, to advance the Y value of the pcl cursor when starting a new text line. 50 is a frequently used value.

• Macro Name: If you prompt and specify a macro name, this macro will be included if the conditional test is true or there is no conditional test.
• Xloc: Starting X value of the pcl cursor, 300 pixels / inch, before the macro is started.
• Yloc: Starting Y value of the pcl cursor, 300 pixels / inch, before the macro is started.
