The Question is:
The Missing Carriage Return Problem!
If I attempt to print a document that is saved in "Variable Length" format
(e.g. created by the VMS EDT editor), and the document contains any form feed
characters that are immediately followed by a carriage-return line-feed
sequence, the carriage-return
line-feed sequence is removed, resulting in the relevant pages being printed
one line too high on the page.
If the same document is saved in "Stream" format (e.g. if the document is
available via a PATHWORKS network share and I open it in Notepad), the
document prints correctly. And an extra carriage-return line-feed shows up in
the document when I open it usin
g the VMS EDT editor! Any ideas on what's causing this?
The Answer is :
OpenVMS prints these files quite nicely on various printers, accordingly,
please see topic (1020) and related printing topics, as the OpenVMS
Wizard will assume that this is a creature of the particular printing
mechanisms used, and further will assume that the printing involved
is based on a network connection to a printer. Telnet-based printing
on various devices, in particular, offers various knobs to control
printing behaviour.
