  • $F{callSubf} This says to print whatever is in data element callSubf, which is defined in Data Elements below. It is call number prestamp. If there is no call number prestamp, then it does nothing.

  • + This means do the next thing

  • ($F{callSubf}.equals("") ? "" : "\n") This means if callSubf is blank, i.e. it “equals(““),” then print nothing. Otherwise, i.e. there was something there, then print a line break. So this will print a line break after the prestamp if there is one, and it will do nothing if there is not.

  • $F{callNumericAll} Print whatever is in data element callNumericAll.

  • " " Print a space

  • $F{callSubbCR} Print whatever is in the data element callSubbCR.

  • ($F{callSubk}.equals("") ? "" : "\n") If there was a callSubk, then print a line break after it. Otherwise do nothing.
