More syntax rules
●
Strings must be separated by semicolons (and therefore cannot
contain semicolons).
●
Objects should be listed in hierarchical order. In other words,
signature 1
should be listed before any of the objects in that
signature. The order of hierarchy is:
○
Signatures
○
Sheets
○
Surfaces
○
Pages
●
If a higher level object is not listed, default values are assumed.
●
The file must not contain duplicate objects, and objects must be
listed in their hierarchical order unless defaults are being assumed
for higher-level objects. If duplicates are found or objects are listed
out of order, the output task will fail with an error message listing
the problem line. The error must be corrected before the task is
resubmitted.
