PDF2D Writer Feature Type Parameters
To access feature type parameters, click the gear icon on a feature type in the workspace to open the Feature Type Parameter Editor. To always display the editor in Workbench, you can select View > Windows > Parameter Editor.
General
All feature types share similar General parameters, which may include the Feature Type Name, Reader or Writer Name, and Geometry.
In most Writer Feature Type parameter dialogs, you can also control Dynamic Schema Definitions. Some database formats accept a Table Qualifier prefix on the output table feature type.
See Editing Writer Feature Types for more information.
This parameter sets the layer order of the feature type.
Feature types with lower layer orders will be drawn first. Therefore, features in feature types with higher layer orders will appear on top of features in feature types with lower layer orders.
Valid values are integers. If a value is not specified, then the feature type will have an effective layer order value of 0.
If two features have identical layer order values, then the two will be ordered arbitrarily.
The value specifies to the writer whether the coordinates of geometries should be interpreted as being in page coordinates (for example, inches) such that they represent the location on the page.
- Yes: The coordinates of the geometry are not altered and are treated as literal locations on the page.
- No: This is the default value. The accumulated bounds of the incoming geometries will be used to map the coordinates from the existing units onto the page.
The Page Units feature type option sets the pdf_in_page_coordinates parameter per feature type.
- Visible: The layer will be visible by default after opening the output file in Adobe Acrobat Reader.
- Hidden: The layer will not be initially visible. You can toggle the visibility of layers in Adobe Acrobat Reader after opening the file.
