The SetFormatAttribute transaction lets you set an attribute for the given file format. Currently, the OTG COLD and TW COLD formats are the only ones supported by this function. When an OTG COLD or TW COLD format document is loaded, it takes a snapshot of the current INI information and uses those parameters to format the document. You can override the INI parameters by using this transaction.
