set graphicapptransform
set graphicapptransform=transformstring
This command specifies a set of graphic file formats that should be transformed to a different graphic file format when using PTC Arbortext Layout Developer to publish a document for print or PDF.

The first part of the rule is a list of graphic formats to be converted separated by a comma ( , ).
