A print form defines a layout that is sent to a printer.
To start a new page, call the converseLib.pageEject() system function before issuing a print statement.
The result in either case is that EGL inserts the symbols needed to start a new page, and the floating form is placed on the first line of the floating area on the new page. If the page is similar to the order-and-item output described earlier, for example, the new page does not include the topmost fixed form.
Decimal point and separator characters are determined by the decimalSymbol and separatorSymbol build descriptor options. In EGL programs that you generate for COBOL that do not use print forms, the default values for these options come from the language-dependent options module specified for your runtime installation. However, if you use print forms, the default value for the decimalSymbol option is a period, and the default value for the separatorSymbol option is a comma. If these values are not appropriate to your location, you must explicitly set these build descriptor options.
