Conditional FF

Syntax​

Conditional FF      number

Parameters​

  • number: The minimum number of lines that must be available at the bottom of the current page to print the next section.

Description​

Forces a new page (form feed) only if there is not enough space (fewer than number lines) left on the current page to print an upcoming section.

Remarks​

This command is used to prevent an award category (like an age group) from being split awkwardly across two pages. If 5 lines are required, and fewer than 5 are left, it will eject the page and start the section on a new page.

Examples​

To ensure an age group listing only starts if there are at least 5 lines left on the page:

* In AGERES.RSM file
Conditional FF      5
... (header and field commands for the age group) ...
