Line Continuation

Important

We recommend that you use Microsoft's IPP inbox class driver, along with Print Support Apps (PSA), to customize the print experience in Windows 10 and 11 for printer device development.

For more information, see the Print support app design guide.

GPD file entries that are too long to fit onto a single line can be continued on subsequent lines. To continue an entry, each line after the first must be preceded by a plus sign (+). The plus sign must be the first character on the line, without preceding white space, as illustrated in the following example:

*DeviceFonts:
+    LIST(
+        =RC_FONT_Courier_10pt_regular,
+        =RC_FONT_CGTimes_regular,
+        =RC_FONT_Univers_regular,
+        =RC_FONT_Univers_condensed_regular,
+        =RC_FONT_Antique_Olive_regular,
+        =RC_FONT_Albertus_Medium,
+        =RC_FONT_Albertus_Extra_Bold,
+        =RC_FONT_Courier_regular,
+        =RC_FONT_Letter_Gothic_regular,
+        =RC_FONT_Wingdings)

You do not need to use a line continuation character at the beginning of the following lines:

  • Lines that start with an asterisk.

  • Lines that start with a left brace.
