The AFPAPI was withdrawn in 2005, replaced by AFP Toolbox for Multiple Operating Systems (now down to one operating system...).
"The AFP API component of PSF/MVS V2.2 is no longer provided with PSF V4. It is functionally replaced by AFP Toolbox for MVS, program product 5655-A25. Customers using the PSF/MVS V2.2 API can continue to use their existing program modules on an "as-is" basis or migrate to AFP Toolbox for MVS." The interface mappings are similar, but not identical. You can define fonts by attribute, attribute with scaling (outline fonts), and by name (AFPDFNTAT, AFPDFNTSC, AFPDFNTNM). The Toolbox does not support OpenType fonts, but then neither did the API. Here are a few differences: AFPQATT = AFPQUERY AFPSICS = AFPMSTR AFPSLIB is replaced by JCL (FNTLIBDD) AFPSWSB = no equivalent AFPXFREE, AFPXGET, AFPXLOAD, AFPXSRVI, AFPXSRVN, AFPXUNLD= no equivalent. The functions don't exist in the last version of the API books from 1996.
