Class DocumentName

java.lang.Object
  extended by javax.print.attribute.TextSyntax
      extended by javax.print.attribute.standard.DocumentName
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, Attribute, DocAttribute

public final class DocumentName
extends TextSyntax
implements DocAttribute

Class DocumentName is a printing attribute class, a text attribute, that specifies the name of a document. DocumentName is an attribute of the print data (the doc), not of the Print Job. A document's name is an arbitrary string defined by the client. However if a JobName is not specified, the DocumentName should be used instead, which implies that supporting specification of DocumentName requires reporting of JobName and vice versa. See JobName for more information.

IPP Compatibility: The string value gives the IPP name value. The locale gives the IPP natural language. The category name returned by getName() gives the IPP attribute name.
