SAPSCRIPT Command BOX is used to generate small thick lines. The
thickness of the line given at SAP/R3 is not converted by SAP2AFP in
PSF/AIX. Is this a missing parameter (thickness of line) in the
SAP2AFP transform process of PSF/AIX ?
Is this capability available with Infoprint Manager ?
A:
If your destination printer supports GOCA, then Infoprint Manager
2.1 or later has the capability you seek.

I have confirmed with the developer that the GOCA support for boxes
(both border thickness and shading) is not included in PSF/AIX, nor
will it be added since PSF/AIX has been withdrawn from marketing.
Although the "man" page for sap2afp in PSF/AIX shows the availability
of the -g flag for GOCA support, this is an error; the -g flag is
not supported in PSF/AIX's sap2afp transform and will return an error.
The good news is that support for the border thickness is available
in Infoprint Manager.
Thank you for using ViewBlue/Techline.
