Acif will not process formdef

Defect?:

Acif will not process formdef with  paper from
multiple bins using the subgroup command. 

 PROBLEM:Byron is using pre-printed paper as well as printed
         paper. Certain print jobs use both types of paper.
         Byron  uses the subgroup command in acif to pull the 
        paper from different bins.

        This causes an error from Acif, it does not want to accept 
        multiple input sources. 

*ACTION TAKEN: Requested Byron email me the error message from Acif.
        Byron says that he has run the same jobs without acif and 
        they run successfully using a customized formdef and pagedef. 

Next action: Email from Byron follows
        The formdef used:

--------------------------------------------------------------------

*ACTION TAKEN: Customer called back in and I found PMR 67402,227,000
with the same issue.  It shows that the ACIF code had been changed to
make selecting multiple input bins invalid.  I had the customer
download the fix UQ20896 as stated fixes this problem.
